World’s Most Expensive Shot Sells for $14,000!
United Press International picked up on the purchase, which was made by Ranjeeta Dutt McGroarty, the founder and CEO of India's Trinity Natural Gas, at the super-posh HYDE Kensington nightclub in London. McGroarty is the woman holding the glass of cognac in the above image, looking smug as a bug in a rug, which is understandable if you have $14,250 to throw at a single shot of booze.Tonight #HYDE has made history... we have sold the worlds 🌍 most expensive shot of cognac 🥃 at £10,014 pic.twitter.com/FFHoplWA7H

The bottles also have a storied past, as they were uncovered at the Jean Fillioux cognac house in Cognac, France in 2004, and are thought to be the first-ever blend created by founder Jean Fillioux in 1894. With regards to whether or not this is the most expensive shot of alcohol bar none in the world versus simply the most expensive shot of cognac, we believe the former statement is true considering the fact that this $10,000 shot of cognac was billed as "the world's most expensive shot" back in 2016, and this one outdoes that price by a significant $4,250.Shot of cognac sells in London bar for £10k https://t.co/PgcPIFTt0N pic.twitter.com/cWyia9Iqv9

And finally, how does a person feel after spending that kind of money on 1.4 ounces of booze? Well, McGroarty reportedly said after she took the shot that "Life is about trying new things and pushing boundaries." In response, we'd like to tell the CEO of the Indian natural gas producer that sending random people bottles of Rome de Bellegarde would be a cool new thing to try.
