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
Cameronbridge 1998 James Eadie 23 Year Old Maderia Finish / Luvians
The Cameronbridge distillery was built in 1824 along with the establishment of John Haig & Co, a legendary blending company with links to both the Haig and Stein distilling dynasties. John Haig always had his finger firmly on the pulse of modernisation, and was one of the first distillers to use patent stills. When Alfred Barnard visited in the 1880s, the distillery operating two Stein patent stills (invented by his cousin, Robert), two coffey stills and pot still for producing Irish style grain. Cameronbridge was one of the founding members of DCL, and despite being run independently from it until 1919, it is today the only fully Diageo-owned grain distillery in Scotland. Although provision of their blends has always been its key purpose (as well as grain neutral spirit for Smirnoff and Gordon's, as of 1998), the distillery has two single grain brands, the historic Cameron Brig, and the recently devised Haig Club.
This Cameronbridge was distilled in December 1998 and matured for 23 years, including a 19 month finishing period in single Bual Maderia cask #358019. It was bottled by James Eadie in 2022, exclusively for the Luvians Fife Whisky Festival that year.
James Eadie is an independent bottler with its origins in the blending business of the 19th century, best known for its Trade Mark ‘X’ blend. The name was revived by its eponymous founder’s great grandson in 2014 as the independent bottling arm of his Whisky Invest Direct company. The firm uses its extensive access to casks to turn out increasingly well-regarded releases, and has even resurrected the historic Trade Mark ‘X’ as a popular supermarket blend.
