 Posted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 2:23 pm Post subject: Valuation help needed |
 |
|
I have 3 bottles of whiskey that I'm trying to get valuations for as they have been sat in a cuboard for some years now and I would like to sell them.
The bottles I have are;
Scott's Selection Glenliviet 1973 single Highland Malt 54.5% Vol 70cl Distilled 1973 and Bottled 1996
Glen Mhor 1969 Limited Release Sinlge Highland Malt, Campbell & Clark Limited 45% 70cl Bottle number 1962 of 2265
And a bottle of Whyte and Mackay 30 Year Old Rare Reserve 43% 70cl
All in display boxes and if it would help with the valuation I can supply pictures of each
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. |

I have seen this selling for around £300 - £350 in the whisky specialists shops.
Here is some info i found on the bottle.
| Quote: | Campbell and Clark were/are blenders and exporters based in Glasgow. Started in 1934, they were a subsidiary of Train and McIntyre Ltd; who were associated with Joseph Hobbs; he had a very colourful history during the years of American prohibition, running whisky for Teacher's aboard his ship "Littlehorn'. He was also an agent for Distillers Company Limited (DCL) in Canada. Hobbs returned to Scotland in 1931. He acquired and ran a number of distilleries in association with National Distillers of America though Train and McIntyre. Included in these distilleries was Glenlochy in Fort William, which was bought by Train and McIntyre in 1937 and transferred in 1938 to another subsidiary, Associated Scottish Distilleries. In 1953 DCL bought Train and McIntyre and their assets including Campbell and Clark and the company became defunct.
However, in 1970 Campbell and Clark were reconstructed with American interests in the form of Sazerac Co. Inc. of New Orleans. The operation was fairly modest, purchasing new make whisky from a variety of Scottish distilleries and maturing it in their own warehouses before blending, bottling and/or exporting mainly to the US.

| The Whyte and Mackay 30 Year Old Rare Reserve 43% was replaced by the Whyte and Mackay 30 Year Old 40%. The new bottle sells for around £160 in the whisky shops, not sure how much more the old bottling will be worth, perhaps it could fetch a little more. |

| I have a Scotts Selection Glenlivet 1975 51.5% which i purchased recently for £80, not sure if that helps put a value on your bottle. |
