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
Bagots 15 Year Old Liqueur Irish Whisky 1920s - Collection Only
A 15 year old Irish whiskey, produced by the firm of Bagot, Hutton & Kinahan Ltd. The company had been formed in 1920 by the two well-established wine and spirits houses of Kinahan and Bagot & Hutton. The distribution and bottling of the popular Kinehan's \"LL Whiskey\" had been transferred to the latter company in 1912, setting the stage for the merger that was in the end necessitated by a perfect storm of US Prohibtion, economic depression, and the coming Irish civil war. The company operated up until 1988 when shareholders opted to take a break from the whiskey industry. The Kinehan's brand was revived in 2014 however.
This was bottled in or just after 1926.
This bottle is leaking and is offered here only for collection from our offices in Perth, Scotland.
