Auction introduction: Please note: International Shipping is not available for any Hong Kong Wine and Spirit Sales. Sotheby’s is proud to present the world’s oldest whisky: An 80 Year Old Single Malt Scotch from Glenlivet Distillery that has been bottled by Gordon & MacPhail. This whisky, distilled in 1940, has been cared for by the G&M family for decades, and has finally been bottled through a collaboration with internationally acclaimed architect and designer, Sir David Adjaye OBE. Adjaye designed a unique decanter and oak case around the theme ‘Artistry in Oak’ – a fitting tribute to this landmark moment for the industry – in which to house this inimitable spirit. This lot is supported by a number of different whiskies as part of our Various Owner spirits auction this Fall.
