Hi, have discovered a 75.7cl bottle of Pinwinnie Royale 12 year old scotch whisky at my mother in law's house. It has a purple velvet bag and box (tatty). Label on bottle states:

75Â° proof 75.7cl 26 2/3 fL oz.

Can anybody tell me the age of this and it's rarity, if at all?

Regards Mark.

Without a picture I can only have a rough guess at the time when it was bottled and going by the bottle size and strength I would guess it was bottled in the 1970s as they dropped the Proof alcohol measurement system in 1980

Here is an example of a bottle which sold at auction https://www.whiskyauctioneer.com/lot/88720/pinwinnie-12-year-old-royale-deluxe-blended-1970s
