AUCTION CLOSES TONIGHT FROM 7.30PM

This is just a reminder to let you know that whisky.auction’s December auction closes tonight from 7.30pm GMT, so you only have a few hours to make your final bids. There are still some great bottles to be had, including two bottlings of Johnnie Walker Directors Blend, as well as impressive whiskies from Karuizawa, Ardbeg, Port Ellen, Macallan, Highland Park, Caol Ila and Bruichladdich. If a bid is placed within the last three minutes of the scheduled finish time, the lot will be extended for a further three minutes, allowing you to place a further bid if you wish.

These are the closing times for each category – a great way of simplifying placing your final bids:

• 7.30pm – Books, jugs, memorabilia and miniatures

• 7.50pm – Japanese

• 8.00pm – Islands

• 8.10pm – Lowland

• 8.20pm – Highland

bruichladdich

Whisky Dinner Tuesday, January 19th @ 7pm

How exciting is this ! ? !

We’re hosting our first Bruichladdich Whisky Dinner on Tuesday January 19th!

Established in 1881 Bruichladdich is situated on Lochindaal across from the village of Bowmore on my favourite Scottish Island; Islay. Reed Pettit is Canada’s Bruichladdich Brand Ambassador and he will be on hand to guide you through the 5 whiskies and the history of this great distillery. We’re not gonna tell you what we’re pouring but we’ll give you a hint: we’re starting with The Classic Laddie at 50% and moving along from there and they just keep getting bigger and bolder until . . . which is the finale. So grab one of our limited tickets and join us on Tuesday January 19th for another Whisky Pairing Dinner here at The Kitchen, our very talented kitchen team will once again be pairing 5 of these stunners with 5 incredible dishes.

As always there are only 25 tickets available and I can assure you they sell out fast.

Be sure to plan for a safe ride home!

The cost for this event is only $80 including GST and gratuity and is open to only 25 people! click here to register

OUR DECEMBER AUCTION IS NOW LIVE!

Our final auction of the year is now live, and will end on Thursday 7 January – please note that this is two days longer than normal, to give people plenty of time to place their bids over the Christmas period.

We hope you had a great Christmas and enjoyed some good bottles from our previous auctions – but now is the perfect time to restock your drinks cabinet!

We have a full set of Pappy Van Winkle – a six-bottle lot ranging in age from 10 to 23 years old; we also have the Nikka 70th Anniversary set, comprising four engraved bottles of cask-strength whisky, released in 2004. You’ll also find a good selection of Irish whiskey and rum including some from the now-closed Caroni distillery. There is also a strong line-up of old blends and bourbon. Our miniature selection is top-notch, too: we have many old Irish miniature bottles, a Glenlivet 12 Years Old from the 1950s, and a very rare 1920s Grant’s Liqueur, a pure malt containing just Balvenie and Glenfiddich single malt. Look out for the following bottles, and good luck with your bids!

Ardbeg 1976 Sherry Cask #2398
 
Bowmore Bicentenary
Karuizawa 1980 & 1981, Artifices Series LMdW 2014
Highland Park 1967 (Bot.1991)
Port Ellen 1979 22 Years Old, First Release
St Magdalene 1970, 23 Years Old Rare Malts
Springbank 1968, 37 Years Old The Whisky Fair

You can bid in two ways: either increase the highest bid by a fixed amount, or place your maximum bid straightaway – ideal if you can’t be online on the last day of our auction. Be the first to bid!

Get bidding, and good luck! The Whisky Auction team.
