Arthur Bell began working at Thomas Sandeman’s wine & spirit merchant’s shop in Perth in the 1840s, becoming a partner shortly afterwards and soon moving into whisky blending. The business flourished despite the modest Bell’s aversion to advertising, and it was only in the late 1890s that the company’s first brands were registered at the behest of his sons Arthur K. and Robin Bell, who took over the business after their father’s death in 1900.

After acquiring Dufftown, Blair Athol and Inchgower distilleries in the 1930s, Bell’s went public in 1949 and stayed independent for decades, building Pittyvaich distillery in 1974 and growing Bell’s into the UK’s biggest whisky brand by the turn of the 1980s. Bell’s bought Bladnoch in 1983, shortly before being acquired themselves by Guinness in 1985. The Bell’s brand and distilleries were subsequently absorbed into United Distillers and today remain part of Diageo.

DISCLAIMER

Although a condition report is normally included in the Lot description, 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 and described.
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 transit.All bottles are checked 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, however many items are generally in good condition. When this is not the case, we aim to mention any faults 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 found here.
All information in this listing is provided to the best of our knowledge including when we chose to date the age of a bottle. If you are unhappy with the listing or believe there is an error/discrepancy, you should notify us immediately and we will address the Lot accordingly. Placing a bid confirms you have checked the Lot and are satisfied.
