The House of Lords Scotch Whisky brand was created by whisky merchant and blender William Whiteley, a colourful character who made a fortune smuggling his whiskies to the Mafia during Prohibition. Whiteley had previously been sacked from Edinburgh blenders James Munro for shady export deals and already had one bankruptcy under his belt before hitting the jackpot with his King’s Ransom brand in 1928. 

Whiteley’s House of Lords blend was very popular in export markets, but could not be sold in Britain as Whiteley had never asked for permission to use the House of Lords name. Whiteley bought Edradour in 1933 before selling his business five years later to an associate of his Mafia smugglers. Today, most of Whiteley’s brands are owned by Pernod-Ricard, while House of Lords whisky now has official approval and is made by Gordon & MacPhail.

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.
