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
Glenwyvis 2018 Batch 02/18
The story of Glenwyvis begins in 2015 when farmer and green energy advocate John Mckenzie decided to start a distillery in the highland town of Dingwall. What made Mckenzie’s ambitions unique is that this his goal was to create the first 100% community owned distillery in Scotland. After the initial planning stages, he started a crowdsourced fundraising campaign the following year. In just 77 days over two thousand people backed his project and became shareholders in the future distillery, the majority of which being from the local area. The number of investors soon rose to over three thousand and construction began in 2017. The name of the project is a nod to two silent distilleries that were in the same area: Ben Wyvis in Dingwall and Glenskiach in Evanton. Glenwyvis is 100% powered by renewable energy such as hydro, wind, solar and a chip biomass heating system. Like many fledgling operations, they first began producing gins and other spirits. The first single malt whisky release went on sale in December 2021.
This is the second release release from the distillery, bottled in 2022. It was matured in a combination of casks:
- 60% first-fill Tennessee whiskey casks
- 25% first-fill Oloroso casks
- 15% refill whisky casks
One of 8,000 bottles.
