Just Whisky Auction Live – Amazing Selection of Whisky
Just Whisky is delighted to go live with their 58th auction, we have a vast array of bottles for your collection, for a wee dram and for the investor. Whatever you are looking for we have you covered. The Auction ends Sunday 16th September from 8.00pm (BST)
Macallan Genesis
This bottle caused some issues near the distillery on the day of sale, closing roads and causing traffic problems. I think you will agree it is very stylish in appearance and celebrates the opening of the new distillery. This special limited edition bottling was released in August 2018 to commemorate the opening of the newly built Macallan distillery, which opened it’s doors just a few months prior. This commemorative bottle contains complex and masterful whisky that reflects each painstaking step in the whisky process taken to make The Macallan. It celebrates the creation of an iconic distillery in a unique collaboration with renowned architects Rogers Stirk Harbour & Partners. Presented in a beautiful box along with a lithographic print of the distillery, each one signed by Graham Stark, the lead architect.
Bowmore 18 Years Old – Sherriff’s 75 proof
Bowmore distillery has a long history, and this bottle is one of the rarest we’ve seen at auction. The distillery was bought from the Mutter family in 1925 by J.B. Sheriff & Co. and remained under their ownership until being purchased by Inverness-based William Grigor & Son, Ltd. in 1950. This whisky is from spirit distilled during this period and is bottled at 75° proof.
Dalmore 35 Years Old
An impressive show-stopping piece from Dalmore, aged for 35 long years in three types of casks: A bourbon barrel, a colheita-port pipe and a Matusalem sherry and presented in a Baccarat Crystal decanter. One of only 1000 bottles released.
Laphroaig 12 Years Old – Cadenhead’s 80 proof 1960’s
An incredibly well-preserved bottle of Laphroaig, bottled – we believe – in the late 1960’s by Aberdeen-based Wm. Cadenhead. Red stopper with white plastic seal. 80° Proof.
Bowmore 50yo
An incredible release from Bowmore distillery, Islay. Distilled on a very cold day in December 1961 and laid down in two ex-bourbon hogshead casks, the Bowmore 50-Year-Old has spent half a century maturing in the legendary No. 1 Vaults. In 2011, just 200 bottles of this truly exceptional single malt were bottled. Bowmore 50 Year Old is a celebration of not just one Mastercraft, but many, starting with the time-honoured skills of Bowmore’s small distillery team that cold winter’s day on Islay.
