|
|
Was in an antiques shop today and they had a few miniatures. I didn't try to barter hard but picked these ones up for a tenner. Not sure I got a bargain but Littlemill miniatures seem to fetch £5 upwards on eBay these days. I don't honestly know why I took the port!
Can anyone put an era/value to them? I'm not really into collecting whisky and don't know much about miniatures, will they be OK to drink? _________________ "Whisky is liquid sunshine."

I should think they will be ok to drink unless they look cloudy. Probably a good price for the 4 them and should be interesting to taste but they wont be worth a great deal.
I reckon with ebay stopping the sale of all alcohol many miniatures bottles like these will just be disgarded now and will not find there way to the market place.
What is the bottle on the left? |

Thanks john. I may put the Littlemill aside and drink the rest, you never know, online sales may become easier again. The one on the left is a De la Force Lagrima white port, don't know anything about it, just took it on a whim. _________________ "Whisky is liquid sunshine."
