I'd be interested to see how many people that managed to get a bottle of the Foundation Reserve will be sampling it or keeping it for investment purposes especially given results on Ebay!!

I will be keeping mine but not for investment purposes. I was fotunate enough to be blessed with a child in Febuary this year, I have decided to keep my bottle and give it to him on his 18th birthday. I just hope he dosen't drink it in one go and throw it up against the wall Rolling Eyes

, like his Dad would have Wink

this should make a nice gift and should be worth quite a bit in 18 years time.

Just received an email today 7 weeks after I had ordered two bottles that I am only getting 1, anyone else have any problems like this?

The second bottle was for a member on here who was working off shore when they went on sale.
It does annoy you when you see them on ebay Sad

Next day I received an email confirming both bottles had went through got the Â£53 each.
Money was taken from my bank account on the same day.

sorry to hear you have had problems, everything went fine for me. It did take a while before it arrived but that wasnt a surprise to me as it was said on here when they would begin dispatching and i am more than happy with my purchase.

drinking the Foundation Reserve tonight, love it and what a great buy. Oaky, spicey, malty, fruity, cinnamon and quite a long finish. Glenfiddich will do well to release more like this, excellent. I planned to keep my 2nd bottle unopened for a while but i don t think that will happen now.
