Bonham's Head of Wine & Whisky in Hong Kong, Daniel Lam said, "We are very excited about this new sale – the first online-only whisky sale for Bonham's worldwide. We opted to sell bottles from one distillery only and in The Macallan I think we have chosen the best. I believe both the selection, and this innovative way of selling whisky at auction, will have broad appeal among whisky collectors.
