Fair question. I didn't pay the current price for the BLACK BOWMORE but was able to pick it up for a few hundred $'s when it was first released. At the time, BOWMORE released three...

Selling bottles of whisky ????
I agree with you Mike. I have found that because someone has found an old bottled blend in their grandfather's house while cleaning, that is a common bottling, they think it is worth a gahzillion...

Hi,
Yes, it is out of production. I assume from your description that your bottle does not have a VINTAGE STATEMENT and if that is the case, this was neither a special or rare bottling. There...

Clynelish
Hi,
You CAN'T go wrong with Clynelish. It is an excellent northern Highland dram with maritime salt and sweetness all rolled into one lip-smacking experience. The 14-Yr-Old is the standard OB...

Old Smuggler
It is highly unlikely that the two were mixed in bottling as Chivas is owned by Chivas Bros. and Old Smuggler by Allied Distillers. Some of the similarity in taste and finish is probably because...

Hi, I have found three bottles at auction since 2008. Only one of them is the same as the one you have. It sold for $29.44, which was not surprising as blends normally don't command a high price...
