The 162nd Auction
Ends December 8, 2024
Welcome one and all to our now live 162nd auction! We have a plethora of fantastic bottles in this month with a particularly strong selection of older vintages to choose from, hailing from some of Scotland’s most prestigious distilleries. With Christmas just around the corner this is definitely the time to stock up on that drinks cabinet.
First up is an astonishingly old vintage of Linkwood, distilled in 1898! This was bottled by Ian Grant & Co, a small Glasgow based blending firm that were presumably Linkwood customers, and states on the label that it is “the oldest whisky obtainable”. Given it was bottled around 100 years ago this has to be one of the oldest remining bottles of Linkwood in existence and is certainly some of the oldest whisky obtainable, today as it was then.
This Springbank 15 Year Old was bottled as a “duty free sample for trade purposes only”, before there was such a thing as ‘The Cage’. The original cage was located in the back of Cadenhead’s shop in Campbeltown. The whisky in this bottle was produced before the distillery was mothballed in 1979. We know there many of you out there who covet the Duty Paid Samples from Springbank, and this has to be the oldest one we’ve ever seen.
Next up is this fabulous old Mortlach 32 Year Old 26 2/3 Fl Oz. Known as the ‘Beast of Dufftown’ for its muscular and beefy style Mortlach is one of Scotland’s most iconic and respected distilleries, and this bottle is no doubt a fine example of their longstanding commitment to quality releases. Probably bottled some time in the early 70’s this offers a taste of a bygone era and is surely a must-have for any Mortlach aficionados out there.
And last but most certainly not least we have a Macallan-Glenlivet 1937 35 Year Old Gordon & MacPhail 75cl. A very rare bottle this one, and to see it in such a pristine condition is really quite remarkable. Aged for 35 years in sherry wood this pre-war vintage Macallan really ticks all the boxes. Bottled by arguably the most famous independent of them all, Gordon & MacPhail, this bottling wouldn’t look out of place in even the most exclusive of collections.
As always, we have a wide range of high-quality drams available from budget drinkers to blockbuster beauties and everything in between, so now is the time to delve into this month’s offerings and start building that watchlist. Best of luck to everyone in the auction, and as always.........don’t lose your bottle.
