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.

Port Charlotte 2001 The Heretic / Feis Ile 2018: The Last of the First
This Port Charlotte is one of two launched for the annual Feis Ile festival in 2018, to coincide with the rebrand of the Port Charlotte Range. Port Charlotte is a heavily peated expression, produced at Bruichladdich as a recreation of a style of whisky created at an old 'lost' distillery in the nearby town of the same name.
This distillery exclusive was launched at their Feis Ile open day on 27th May 2018. This is a marriage of the last 5 casks filled during the first year of Bruichladdich's Port Charlotte production in 2001, hench the name 'The Last of the First.'. The casks in question had previously held American whiskey, rum, and fine French wine.
Bottle no. 1053 of 1300.
All five casks were selected by Bruichladdich's Master Distiller, Adam Hannett.
