Sikes' Hydrometer Set x2

A complete Sikes' Hydrometer set manufactured by Buss together with a complete Glass Hydrometer set manufactured by P. Stevenson.

The Buss set comprises of a mahogany box with red silk lining and fitted red velvet pad, which house the brass weights, hydrometer float, thermometer and glass beaker. The lid has inset cartouche which reads 'SIKES' HYDROMETER BUSS 33 HATTON GARDEN LONDON'. Thomas Odempsey Buss and his successors operated at 33 Hatton Gardens from 1865 - 1911.

The P. Stevenson set comprises of a mahogany box containing 5 glass hydrometers. The lid has inset cartouche which reads, 'GLASS SIKES' HYDROMETERS P. Stevenson. 7 & 9 Forrest Road. Edinburgh.'

These sets were produced for use by customs officials in the testing of alcoholic strength of distilled whisky/spirit once the cask had been removed from it's bonded warehouse and duty was required by law to be calculated and paid.

A fascinating piece of history surrounding the production process of Scotch Whisky.

Overall condition of the Buss set is good and all pieces appear original and stamped with reference no. 5213.

The wooden case of the P. Stevenson set has various minor scratches and stains accross the lid consistent with age and use. The base of the box has split accross the length but is securely in place. The glass therometers are in good condition.

Ardbeg Uigeadail

The legendary cask strength Ardbeg, highly acclaimed and winner of Best Whisky in the World as chosen by Jim Murray.

The Ardbeg Distillery lies on the most Southerly part of Islay and on the rugged shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Ardbeg is revered around the world as the peatiest, smokiest, most complex whisky of them all. Yet it does not flaunt the peat: rather the peat gives way to the malt, the natural sweetness of which subtly intrudes, producing perfect balance.
