Dear Martin,

I have a bottle of Scotch Whisky which I would be interested in putting into an auction. I don't know anything about whisky so I was wondering if you would be able to tell me if it is valuable.

Details:

Old Malt Cask 50%

Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Distilled at Port Ellen Distillery

Matured in Sherry Cask

Islay Scotch whisky for Fortnum & Mason Piccadilly London

Aged 21 years

Distilled September 1982

Bottled July 2004

This bottle is one of 305 bottlesfilled from the cask

Douglas Laing & Co Ltd

Finish: Long, Maritime yet earthy and medicinal

Nose: Sherry impact, warms to an Islay collison

Palate: Spiced, fruity, phenolic, darkly smoky.

700ml

Also it comes in a wooden presentation box embossed with a gold coloured FM and pattern (obviously for Fortnum & Mason).

Regards

Mark Coulson
