Hi Ransetsu

You dont say whether they are both "OB's" (original distillery bottlings).

The Bowmore 21 year old may have a similar value as these bottlings shown here:

If the Ardbeg 1978 is an OB then i can say it is an excellent dram which sells in the shops for £250. See this page here:

Dont forget these prices are shop prices which include duty, VAT and the shop mark up so for a private sale you have to take this into consideration.

Several bottles of the Ardbeg 1978 were for sale at the whiskyfair in Limburg last april for 180 euro's.
