Whisky Auctioneer Feis Ile Auction Now Live – Scotch Whisky News
What an amazing Feis Ile this year – wonderful whiskies combined with sensational, sunny weather!
The Whisky Auctioneer team was lucky enough to join the festival, and although we can’t bring back the great weather, we were on standby for anyone looking to get their bottles transported safely off the island.
So if you weren’t able to make the trip over then do not worry – you’ll find all the whisky that the island had to offer in the current auction…
Hunter Laing Kinship Collection 6 x 70cl / Feis Ile 2018
To celebrate the coming completion of their Ardnahoe distillery on Islay, Hunter Laing has released a second selection of 6 bottlings, following on from the original Kinship collection in 2017.
Feis Ile 2018 Official Releases
Each distillery had at least one release for those lucky enough to have made the epic journey to the island. Kilchoman introduced their most aged whisky to date, Laphraoig finished in sherry casks and Bruichladdich and Port Charlotte offered hugely experimental releases.
Bowmore released two different expressions: There was a single cask release that many dedicated Bowmore fans sat patiently in line for, along with the 15 year old matured exclusively in Oloroso casks.
Whilst the lion’s share of the attention went to the official releases from each distillery, some fantastic indy bottlings were also up for grabs throughout the week.
Campbeltown Malts Festival 2018
Lastly, we musn’t forget the fact that on the run up to the Feis Ile, Campbeltown had their own wee annual celebration where some mouth-watering releases were revealed. We have a selection of these available in our current auction.
