Have we got a bona fide auction - titter.
Your offer of £25 or 5% on retail price sounds very tempting.
Will our seller take up this generous offer? |

Agree. My guess would be nearer £1500 this time.

| Not a "new" release. Part of the original release. But secondary market prices shuld nosedive, as supply will increase whilst demand stays static. |

Unfortunately it is thereabouts with 2.8K & 2.9K at the last SWA
My understanding is that it was £495 on release and on some large scoring websites it only has an average score of 83 points for wha itt tastes like so why is it deemed so valuable, does the name Macallan really at 2k+ to the contents, is that name worth that much, cripes?

| My dad has just received an email as well. It would be interesting to know how many people actually are successful! There could bed quite a few bottles still to be dished out as nobody seems to know how many went to GTR in Dubai (was it?)? |

| Macallan could bottle cold tea aged for 25 days and people would buy it. Id hope this Genesis is a better whisky than othe NAS they release. |

I wonder how many of these Genesis bottles were actually purchased to drink?

Sorry, Global Travel Retail, in other words Duty Free. They said that some would be sold at their duty free shop. I think it's Dubai or somewhere else in the Middle East. But nobody knows how many were sent over there and when... |
