Distilled in a single year (1989), so the available batch is inherently finite.

A 21-year age statement signals extended maturation, which limits how much was ever bottled.
These are scarcity and demand signals drawn from the bottle's own attributes — they describe the bottle, not a prediction of future price. Not investment advice.
