Default Old Bottle of Buchanans Black and White Scotch Whiskey

Hello all, just hoping to get your expert opinions on this old bottle of Buchanans Black and White scotch. I acquired it at an estate sale in the Bay area of California. I'm a bit confused as to whether its been opened or not as the level in the bottle isn't at the top yet it is sealed with an official Buchanans seal. Any info on age, value and how good you think it's going to taste is much appreciated. Thanks.

Also there's a label on the back that reads: "Lauriston Cellars Stock was stored in an underground tunnel about 1914. Moved twice during the World War and prohibition period. On repeal of prohibition in fall of 1933was transferred to Lauriston Cellars."

If you want more photos of anything please feel free to ask.

Give it some time. We have knowledgeable members that are not on every day.

Even the best sealed bottles eventually allow air to seep in causing evaporation. We will see if can pinpoint a date on your bottle. Thanks for links for images!

Your bottle of Black & White whisky was dated by the Diageo Archive from 1915 - 1921.
