Last month’s auction was all about 50-year-olds and this month’s auction continues the same theme with several more. Starting with a modern masterpiece; The Dalmore Candela 50-year-old. A vatting composed of whisky distilled in 1868, 1878, 1909, 1922, 1939 and 1951....

This month’s sale showcases what we are all about here at Whisky Online Auctions. We attract not only high-end whiskies but we like to concentrate on the older, rarer and obscure bottles you don’t come across every day. We have several whiskies worthy of our...
