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
Suntory Tsukuriwake Selection 2024 Editions 4 x 70cl / Wooden Presentation Case
Suntory are one of the founding fathers of Japanese whisky, established by Shinjirō Torii in 1899 as a wine store in Osaka. The venture was hugely successful, and the company was renamed Kotobukiya in 1921, which built its first distillery three years later, Yamazaki. The distillery produced both malt and grain whiskies which the company blended together, releasing its first Suntory White Label in 1929, the resulting popularity of which saw the firm renamed after it in 1963. Expansion in the next decade saw the company move its grain production to a new Chita distillery in 1972, and open a second malt distillery, Hakushu, the following year. Suntory today has a large stake in both the bourbon and Scotch whisky industry, but remains at the forefront of its native whisky market too.
The set includes four bottles of Yamazaki and Hakushu, all bottled as part of the 2024 Tsukuriwake selection:
- Yamazaki Islay Peated Malt 48% 70cl
- Yamazaki 18 Year Old Mizunara Japanese oak cask 48% 70cl
- Yamazaki Golden Promise 48% 70cl
- Hakushu 18 Year Old Peated Malt 48% 70cl
The bottles are presented in a branded wooden case, which was a limited edition for the Spanish Market.
Note: Due to the weight of this lot it will include a nine bottle shipping fee.
