Hi Peter- are you looking for a valuation? If so, try www.mctears.com or www.bonhams.com

For more information on the brand, check out:

http://www.macduffint.co.uk/islay_mist.php

We'll also see if we can find out anything in regard to your particular bottle.

This looks to be one bottled by Long John INT who are now owned by Chivas but the brand was sold in the mid 90's.
The pack didn't change much from the 1970's through to when it was sold, the date of 1968 could be correct as that type of metal cap was started to be used around 1966.
It may be worth a little bit more than a standard bottle of blend in an auction if someone was interested in it but otherwise have a dram and enjoy it.
