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
Cascade Kentucky Straight Bourbon 1970s
Cascade bourbon was a brand produced for many years by Schenley , one of the \"big four\" distilling companies to emerge in the US after the repeal of Prohibition, alongside Hiram Walker, Seagram's and National Distillers.
Schenley acquired the Cascade Distilling Company from Geroge Dickel in 1937, who had been forced out of their historic home in Tennessee by its early adoption of Prohibition, and moved their distilling to Kentucky. Schenley did however revive the Tennessee distillery in 1958 after they lost out to Brown-Forman in a bid to buy Jack Daniel's.
This was distilled at the George T. Stagg distillery (known nowadays as Buffalo Trace), and was bottled in 1970 at Schenley's distillery in Lawrenceburg, Indiana.
