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
Bankhall British Single Malt
Aber Falls distillery is based in Abergwyngregyn, between the foothills of the Snowdonia Mountains and the Menai Strait. The project began in August 2017 when owners, Halewood International, recruited ex-Dalmore Head Distiller, Lora Hemy, who oversaw the instillation of a 5,000-litre wash still and a 3,600-litre spirit still. The distillery prides itself on its strong ethics, such as supporting Welsh farmers by only using 100% locally grown barley. Like many new distilleries, Aber Falls began producing a range of gins and vodkas while waiting for their single malt stock to reach a suitable age. This inaugural release premiered in May 2021.
This single malt was distilled at Aber Falls distillery in Wales. It was initially matured in virgin American oak casks, then finished in bourbon casks.
