Bidding advice
You can place bids either under the lot image on the main auction page or on the right side of the individual lot page.
Placing a Maximum Bid
Use the "Set your bid limit" button on the left side of the bidding panel to enter the highest amount you're willing to bid on a lot. Our system will then automatically raise your bid in set increments if you’re outbid, up to your maximum. If someone bids above your set limit, we’ll notify you by email so you can choose whether to increase your bid.
Placing a Single Bid
Alternatively, place a single bid by selecting the button on the right side of the bidding panel. The button displays the amount needed for the next increment. For example, if the current highest bid is £50.00, the button will show "+ £55.00" (reflecting a £5.00 increment).
Incremental Bidding Explained
Our system increases bids based on preset increments, as shown in the table below, whether you set a maximum bid or make a single bid.
Bottle Details
Lindores Casks of Lindores / Bourbon Barrels
Located on the outskirts of Newburgh in Fife, the Lindores Abbey distillery takes its name from a Tironensian abbey which was built by David, Earl of Huntingdon on land granted to him by his brother, William the Lion, in 1191. The abbey is of historical significance as it was the location of the first written reference to the production of Scotch whisky in 1494. Lindores monk, Brother John Cor, was commissioned by King James IV to turn 8 bolls of malt into Aqua Vitae, and his production is recorded in the Exchequer Roll of the same year. Today only ruins of the original abbey remain, but in 2017 the new state-of-the-art distillery began production at the same location. Designed by the late Dr Jim Swan, the facility is armed with three Forsyths copper pot stills and traditional wooden washbacks supplied by Joseph Brown of Dufftown. The barley is sourced locally and the first releases from the distillery were a range of traditional Aqua Vitae, flavoured with herbs and spices. Lindores Abbey released its first single malt in the summer of 2021.
The Casks of Lindores series offers a glimpse into the individual influence of each of the three casks that contribute to the distillery's core range single malt. This is the bourbon cask expression, matured in bourbon barrels.
