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
Dalmore 50 Year Old 10cl Decanter
A very interesting bottle, the liquid has along and complex history. The casks used combine vintages from 1868, 1922, 1926 and 1939. A brief summary of these casks is below:
Cask one: Distilled in June 1868 and transfered into sherry wood in August 1880 and again in October 1891.
Cask two: Distilled Feburary 1878 then racked to sherry wood April 1890 and again in April 1908.
Cask three : Distilled March 1922.
Then these three casks were “racked” –one in May 1926, one in July 1926 and one in August 1926. Then in Spetember 1977 all 3 were then re-racked to a single, unique butt then bottled in February 1978.
Two casks filled in 1939 which were bottled to glass as a 52 year old in October 1991.
All the above whiskies have been blended under the master craftmanship of Richard Patterson to create this 50 Year old
A very rare 10cl hand blown Portuguese crystal decanter, only 191 bottles were created!
Please note fill level.
