A new world record was set today (28 September), with a bottle of whisky selling at auction for a remarkable £29,400.
The Bowmore single malt whisky is the oldest bottle of Bowmore known to be in existence and is believed to have been bottled on Islay around 1850 by W & J Mutter. It was being sold on behalf of a private owner during the fine and rare whisky wine and port auction held at McTears auctioneers in Glasgow.
Purchased by an anonymous telephone bidder, lot number 152 was the highlight of the action recommended to reach between £15,000 and £20,000.
