St Magdalene - 26 year old - Glenkeir Treasures (1 of 144)

[LMcC]

Hi All
I wanted to gain your thoughts on potential value of a bottle of whisky I purchased a couple of years back as I am considering selling it and I believe its quite rare.

"Glenkeir Treasures - Cask Strength Selection" branded (selected exclusively for The Whisky Shop) single malt whisky
St Magdalene Distillery - aged 26 years (distilled Sept 1982 and bottled Jan 2009)
70cl and ABV 59.1%
Bottled from a Single Cask (it was bottled by Douglas Laing and Co) and states it is 1 of 144 bottles.
The bottle and presentation box are in mint condition (tiny wear on box corners just from standing on a shelf).

The background is I went to a "rare" Whisky tasting event in 2009 at The Whisky Shop in London and I loved this whisky and bought a bottle. I decided I would open it when there was a special occasion to share it around but I've never found a fitting one yet and I've started to think that maybe its better just to sell it so someone else enjoys it instead. In a bit of low-knowledge research I have done, I've seen whiskies of this distillery and age ranging from about £150-£500+ but no direct comparison on this branding (or in bottles from a single cask of this age as limited as a 1 of 144).

I wonder if its worth sitting on it for longer so its bottling gets rarer in circulate as people guzzle its deliciousness but I don't know if its ever going to make it much more valuable than it is now, 5 years on from purchase.

Any thoughts would really be welcome! Thank you everyone
