XS Nightclub Unveils World’s Largest Champagne Bottle

Now this is what we call heavy drinking!

Famous Las Vegas luxury nightclub XS recently unveiled the world’s largest champagne bottle. The “Midas,” named after the king of Greek mythology who turned everything he touched into gold, is a massive 30-liter vessel and weights exactly 100 pounds. The champagne, by elite wine brand Armand de Brignac, is the number one rated prestige cuvee that’s entirely produced by hand. It’s no wonder that many celebrities, such as Jay-Z, Alex Rodriguez, and Rihanna, prefer this sparkling French wine over others.

The Midas bottle of Armand de Brignac was sold at XS for $100,000 by an anonymous patron who was attending the official UFC 125 after-party. Two men were required to carry the famous Midas to the mysterious buyer's table!

Each metallic bottle of Armand de Brignac bears two Ace of Spades insignias, as well as four hand-applied pewter labels. The champagne is also housed in a glossy black wooden case, which also features the sparkler’s royal crest. And if that’s not enough, each box is lined in velvet and fitted with an engraved nameplate.

Would you spend $100,000 for a Midas?
