Bowmore Largiemeanoch
Sold for £3,055 by Mulberry Bank Auctions, this bottle ap- peared out of nowhere just over 2 years ago when Serge Valentine gave it a score of 97/100 on Whiskyfun. One of the most brilliant whiskies ever bottled.
Ardbeg The President’s Malt
Sold for £7,990 by Mul- berry Bank Auctions, only 2 decanters of this special offi cial bottling of 1975 Ardbeg were produced and auctioned for charity in 2011, making it the rarest offi cial Ardbeg bottled by Glenmorangie so far.
The Macallan Royal Marriage
This is one of the most popular bottles of The Macallan. This example will be sold at the Tennants Fine Whisky Sale on 7 December and has an estimate of £600-1,000.
Port Ellen
The next Tennants Fine Whisky sale on 7 December will include a good collection of 1970s Connoisseurs Choice, including 3 bottles each of Port Ellen and Ardbeg.
Christopher’s Macallan 25 yo Jubilee
This Jubilee bottle doubled its estimate back in May, taking an astonishing £3,000 on the rostrum at McTear’s Auctioneers. Both celebrated for its quality and delivered in an impressive ‘double-measure’, it was a natural high-interest item for our Macallan collectors.

Appearing at McTear’s Auction- eers on 28 November, this ultra limited-edition Hazelburn is part of a release of just 65 bottles specially selected for sharehold- ers and employees of J & G Mitchell by industry legend Frank McHardy. Could there be a bottle of whisky with a better CV?
