*** Auction LIVE *** 

Biding in Just Whisky’s latest auction ends this Sunday at 8PM. Their biggest auction yet has some very interesting bottles – some of which we’ll highlight here.

One of the lots that stand out is from the depths of the sea; specifically a rare salvaged bottle of what is believed to be Auchnagie whisky from 1893. The bottle was retrieved from the wreck of the Wallachia in the Firth of Clyde on Saturday the 31st of March 2007 by a group of divers. It was located in the forward hold of the wreck, encased in silt.

The Wallachia, an iron steam ship sank on the 29th of September 1895 (the same day it left port) after colliding with the 1406 ton Norwegian Floss on Skelmorie Bank, 3.5 miles east of Toward Point. Today the wreck lies upright on a muddy seabed in 34 meters of water.

An incredibly rare opportunity to buy a piece of history.

Next us from a vast selection, is a limited edition of 1000 Macallan Master Of Photography sets. The Macallan Masters of Photography series has previously featured collaborations with photographers such as Rankin, Albert Watson, Elliot Erwitt and Annie Leibovitz.

Only 1,000 of bottles were available for purchase worldwide and each comes in a black lacquered presentation box designed together with Testino. Each case features one of four iconic shots taken by Testino.

Included in the presentation box is a photo-archival booklet with 20 images from the shoot, a bottle of single malt whisky and six miniatures from each of the selected casks, hidden in a secret compartment.

If you are a Macallan fan or collector then this month Just Whisky has an incredible selection. In fact over 100 lots from this Distillery. View them all here.

Ardbeg is also well represented this month. The latest distillery only release (Ardbeg Perpetuum) has made it to the auction shelves, and with demand for the bottle high, this release is one to watch.

There are so many lots on offer this month it’s best to head over there and check them all out for yourself. Once again bidding ends on Sunday at 8PM.
