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
Kavalan Solist Miniatures 2 x 4.8cl
Kavalan distillery is part of the King Car group in Taiwan, and was the first whisky distillery in the country. The group's founder, TT Lee, was a huge fan of Glenlivet single malt and was inspired to try and replicate it in his home nation, enlisting the help of the legendary Dr. Jim Swan, known by many as \"the Einstein of whisky.\" The distillery takes its name from the indigenous Kavalan people of Taiwan's Kabalan Plain, and opened in December 2005. It produced its first spirit in 2006, and its first single malt bottling in 2008. Within just four years it was already receiving international acclaim, receiving an number of prestigious awards over the years.
