Hi,

The Balvenie
Single Barrel
Aged 15 years
Bottling Date 10.4.1997
Casked Date 14.9.1981
Cask No. 130
Bottle No. 189

Approx 15 years ago I purchased this bottle of whisky, it has moved house with house 4 times yet never been opened. We are now moving again (overseas) and I have just rediscovered it in a box in the basement!

How can I find out what its value is today and whether it's worth selling?

Any help is much appreciated.

Adrian

Not sure if it will add a lot of value being a bottling from 1997 but it may surprise you. The current Balvenie 15 Single Barrel bottling sells for around Â£45 so my guesstimate would be around Â£60 but i could be way out. ebay may be the best place to sell this one, you may get lucky and get some balvenie enthusiasts bidding for it.

I agree, you wont get a great deal for this, probably ebay will be the best place to sell it
