Great finds! That KK8 is a batch 9, the latest release from this year. The batch #4 which was a re-charred Oloroso is the one that goes for really crazy prices at auction. Our auction options are severely limited here in the US as we only have one online site that has regular auctions and it is almost impossible to get a good deal there these days due to an influx of people with deep pockets and little apparent knowledge about getting a good bang for your buck. Hopefully we will see more auction opportunities in the future.

These auctions are amazing as you never know which bottle will be left untouched. I once won a Glendalough 13 Mizunara for 40pounds where the rrp before it was discontinued was around 60-70 and the previous auction it sold for 95! Always worth checking the auctions and it's fun to play the game :) Cheers and congratulations Ben!

Good job Ben. Us buyers further south have the shipping cost too...sadly. Its a pain but makes costs higher than RRP generally.

Cracking pick-ups mate. Not gonna lie, when I saw that Kilkerran I called you some choice names🤣 But, in the best possible taste, obviously. Enjoy. Cheers Ben.

It's the batch 9 from 2023! I was so lucky to visit a whisky shop in Holland three weeks weeks ago where they had just put them on the shelf that day. Only one sherry cask left. Picked up the bourboun too.

Some excellent grabs Ben. I really enjoyed that GlenAllachie too. I envy anyone who lives close to an auction, the unfathomable delivery fees make buying for me very difficult. Retailers can send me a bottle for 5 or 6 pounds, but the auctions want to charge me £12+ and then incrementally increase the shipping if I win multiple bottles.

I have added the fees at the end before the final calculations. I had feedback it would be better to add this to the individual bottle prices which I will do in future! Cheers 🥃🥃🥃

Which auction website would you recommend ? Thanks

Well the one I USE is SWA (Scotch Whisky Auctions) although I didn’t look much further and wouldn’t necessarily recommend them over any other, as I haven’t experienced any other… but my experience with them has been generally very positive.
