Ultra-rare bottlings continue to find buyers. A 1.5-litre bottle of Bowmore STAC 55 Year Old single malt Scotch fetched a hammer price of £450,000 (£562,500 with buyer’s premium) at the Sotheby’s-hosted Distillers One of One charity auction in October.
Data from Bordeaux Index suggests long-term price growth for rare whisky has continued in 2023 (see chart below), although Matthew O’Connell, CEO of the merchant’s LiveTrade platform, said momentum has slowed a little.
