Default Value of Usquaebach

I have a stone jug bottle of Usquaebach 40%, 710ml, Sealed in Bond Glasgow.
Blended and Bottled by Douglas Laing and Co Ltd Glasgow, Scotland.
Imported by Twelve Stone Flagons Ltd, Castle Shannon Pennsylvania.

I cannot find any info on this bottle or very much even on the brand. Is it any good?
It's never been opened and has been handed down from two deaths already. I'm not a big scotch drinker myself, but if its good high end or special stuff, I'll keep it for myself and some of my close friends. I don't want to make a mistake and let someone who won't appreciate it, come and drink it just, to get pissed.

I would drink it. It has not been made in a long time. I have done some research and heard that this blend is in production and will be available in the United States sometime this spring. It is considered a high end blend.
Where are you located?

In Winnipeg, Canada.
Good for those long cold winters I guess.

Rethinking keeping the scotch, and want to possibly sell it in North America. Who would know how much I could sell it for. Are ther auctions in North America, like the ones in Europe?

When this blend was available in Mich.[we have fairly high liquor taxes] it retailed for about $60! It hasn't been available for, and I'm guessing a bit, over 15 years.

I think a bottle like you described went on Ebay about 4 months ago for about $75.
