Hugely popular in times gone by, the days of the ceramic whisky decanter would seem to have passed. Nonetheless, certain of these decanters have remained extremely valuable due to their rarity and/or the quality of the whisky within.
An old presentation of Bell's ceramic decanters. This was produced prior to the Christmas series and bears a slightly different shape to the more modern bell decanters.
A very special edition of Royal Salute, assembled by Chivas Brothers using 100 casks aged to perfection following up to forty years of cask maturation.
A Royal Doulton ceramic decanter containing a special 21 year old blended whisky from this historic producer. This blend was released sometime around 1990.
An old bottling of Dimple Royal Sovereign. This has been aged for 21 years and is presented Dimple's iconic triangular bottle, encased in a pewter 'frame'. We estimate that this was bottled sometime in the 1980s.
A special embossed teardrop decanter of aged Strathmill, bottled for the distillery's centenary in the early 1990s. Very rare to see an official bottling of Strathmill, this is a real collector's item.
A stunning new distillery bottling of Glenfarclas 50yo for The Whisky Exchange. Aged over 50 years in a single refill sherry cask, and bottled at a remarkable 50% abv, just 87 bottles were yielded from the cask. This incredibly rare Glenfarclas has been packaged in a gorgeous crystal decanter.
Bottled in 1978 into just sixty beautiful cut crystal decanters, the casks for Dalmore 50yo were laid down in the 1920s, and some of the spirit is reputed to have been distilled in the late 19th century. This is one of the best 50 year-old whiskies ever produced and is the personal favourite of many connoisseurs worldwide.
