The Watergate Scandal rocked America in June, 1972. Richard Nixon was caught in the eye of the storm, and Americans began to question his intentions. This June marks the 47th anniversary of the scandal, and to mark this momentous day, the Watergate Hotel has a challenge for its guests.
To enter the competition, you will have to purchase what is known as the Break the Safe Flight for $200 at the Next Whiskey Bar, and you will get to have your crack at the code. The rare whiskey bottle will remain sealed inside the Mosler safe until its rightful owner claims it by breaking into the safe.
You might think that $200 is a big amount to shell out for just one shot of luck; but, in fact, you will be getting one-ounce each from three vintage whiskeys, George T. Stagg, Macallan Exceptional Cask 12 Year, and Kavalan Solist Vinho Barrique. Also, you would be glad to know that a bottle of the delicious 1960 Last Drop Whiskey costs thousands of dollars. It was actually discovered in a sherry cask ageing for 50 years. The bottles were made available to only a select few, The Watergate Hotel is one of them.
