Mulberry Bank Whisky Auction – Whisky News

Mulberry Bank Whisky Auction

Welcome to November’s Whisky and Wine Auction at Mulberry Bank. Firstly I want to thank everyone who made my first Whisky auction in September a huge success, your support and enthusiasm for what we do here at Mulberry Bank was second to none.

It has been an extremely busy couple of months and has seen me valuing and collecting Whisky from all corners of the UK, from the south east coast of England to the highlands of Scotland. Again just like my last auction I’ve focussed on collecting as varied a mix as possible, including collectable single malts from Scotland, whiskies from other malt producing countries, blends from many decades and quite a few lots of popular and desirable miniatures.

On Tuesday 26th November, we’ll be auctioning over 400 lots of Whisky and a few other spirits. There are a few collectable lots worth mentioning including, lot 200 The Macallan’s 1946 52yo in a lockable wooden box, lot 208 the rare Port Ellen 2008 Feis Ile Bottling, lot 61 The Macallan’s Nicol’s Nectar and lot 377 Springbank 1966. We also have many outstanding lots for our miniature collectors including lot 412 sixteen Signatory miniatures, lot 403 four Macallan miniatures including two 10yo & two 18yo’s and lot 80 Largiemeanoch 1973 to name but a few.

If you are not a collector but instead are looking for a few tasty bottles of Whisky to savour and enjoy with friends then this auction won’t disappoint, lot 285 has four delicious Flora & Fauna bottles, lot 311 has three Glenmorangie’s lot 328 sees two older bottlings of the popular Dalmore 12yo and Old Fettercairn10yo. If Irish or Japanese Whisky is more suited to your taste then lots 282, 309 and 283 won’t disappoint. November’s auction will deliver something for everyone, the collector, the taster and the drinker.
