LOT ID: 852


End Date : Feb 04 2015 08:00 PM


LOT DESCRIPTION

1 bottle Reaney & Greaves Finest Liqueur Whisky. Bottled circa 1930. No box. Stopper cork with plain foil wrapper capsule. Two part moulded glass bottle. 'Reaney & Greaves Whisky Blenders Bradford'. Level base of neck. No capacity stated although bottle is standard size around 75cl. 30 Under Proof (40% ABV). Wear and ageing to label appropriate to age and cellar storage conditions.  A beautiful bottle from way back in the 1930s. One from the same batch with a lower filling level was opened and found to be incredibly oily, sooty, waxy and full of peat, very dry, mieral, phenol driven old style peat that betrays a high malt content old blend. The level and clarity of the liquid suggest the whisky in this one has survived exceptionally well and should be stunning for anyone who choses to open it.

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.
