Depending on how much of the 12 year old you were drinking, it wouldn't really matter. 
25 year old is pretty damn smooth, but even that is dear at the price (I certainly can't afford it, but a friend of the family had some on hand). Maybe 50 year old is twice as good? And therefore justifies being ten times as expensive?
