Just checked out whiskybase and they reckon number of bottles released was 3250 bottles for Macallan folio 5. Cannot verify if true or not but seems in line with the last releases.

Reliable info as their numbers are spot on when checking bottlings such as Edition Series and concept 1. Very Interesting !!!!!!!!!

I suppose it is interesting to understand how they work out how many bottles they think have been released? I'm sceptical due to the number of people who were successful in the ballot.

I was also at Scotch Whisky Auctions last week and they have over 100 bottles of Folio 5 registered for the next auction. Good luck to all sellers!

I was successful in the ballot and decided not to sell,looks like hanging on to it in the long term may be the best idea with 100 bottles at SWA and perhaps similar amount at WA ,the market value could be below £500 maybe.

Heathrow now taking in stock every couple days & got myself 2 bottles. 1 to enjoy and 1 for keepsake. RRP 250 quid & the auctions are fairly dropping in price now due to heavy amounts being listed.

With only 7 being auctioned off in Decembers whiskyhammer and the prices nicely rising to a £1500 average I’m glad I managed to win one in the ballot. The folio 1 and 2 are now confirmed by Macallan at only a 2000 bottle release. Fingers crossed they haven’t vastly increased the numbers year on year. Spoke to a Macallan employee and he said we could see the Folio range into the 20’somethings. Think he did give an exact Folio 27 but can’t remember as I’d had a few tasting platters 🤔
With how much these increase if I don’t win ballot for the 7 I’m taking the plunge and getting one from auction. Could have got the 6 for £700 itd now cost me about £1300 a year later
