1 bottle Ardbeg 1976 - 1999 Manager's Dram. Cask number 2391. Bottle no 470 of 497. No box. 70cl. 56%. Level in neck. Excellent condition. This was hand bottled at the distillery back in 1999 and was the first of many truly incredible casks to be released by, at that time new owners, Glenmorangie. This is still considered one of the best casks ever releases of Ardbeg. This bottle comes from an Islay local who bought it originally at the time of release and has kept it in pristine condition ever since. It is worth noting we have in this auction the even rarer variant of this bottling, the 1975 Manager's Dram for the Japanese market (LOT: 576). Another incredibly hard to find early official Ardbeg single cask.

Although a condition report is normally included in the Lot description, this is not comprehensive and is based on a brief overview. Most items will be described as good or fair, this does not mean it will not exhibit wear or tear. We do recommend viewing/close inspection prior to placing any bids. If this is not an option and you have questions beyond the offered description and images, please use the form below "Ask A Question" to make specific enquiries or to receive a more in-depth condition report. Otherwise, Lots will be sold as seen.
Please note: due to the various ages of bottles, corks and their seals, condition of liquid is at the buyer's discretion. And no claim can be lodged against failure/leakage in any circumstance. All bottles are checked for authenticity by our whisky specialists Wayne & Harrison Ormerod prior to any auction. We do not auction opened bottles so therefore all items are sealed unless stated under certain circumstances where seals were never issued by the producer.
No item is deemed new and may exhibit wear or tear, however many items are generally in good condition. If an item has notable faults, we will make every effort to mention these in the description. The images supplied are of the actual item you will receive. If the filling level of the liquid is not visible in the images provided, we aim to indicate the current position in the description. If the filling level is impossible to determine, such as with ceramics decanters, we will provide an overall weight of the decanter in KG. Our filling level guideline can be on this page.
All information in this listing is provided to the best of our knowledge including when we chose to provide a condition report or date the age of a bottle.
