A second bottle - straight rye whisky made in 2003 from a recipe used by America's first President, George Washington - sold to an anonymous bidder for $6,000 at the Christie's auction.
"It's an old recipe," said the auction house's wine and spirit specialist, Justin Christoph. "Only Martha [Washington] knew the whole recipe."
