FINEST SPRINGBANK FROM A PRIVATE COLLECTOR
The Springbank Distillery was established in 1828, built on the site of the previously illicit still used by Archibald Mitchell and is the oldest independent family-owned distillery in Scotland. The current Chairman, Hedley G. Wright, is the fifth generation of the Mitchell family to own and manage Springbank. In 1837, brothers John and William Mitchell, Archibald’s sons, took ownership of Springbank and later, John took his son into the business, forming the company J Mitchell.
Only 24 bottles from the 1919 vintage single cask were bottled at the Springbank distillery in Campbeltown in 1970. This extremely rare 50 Year Old whisky once held the Guinness world record for the most expensive whisky in the world and was ahead of its time in terms of super-premium whisky releases. The lot includes a certificate of authenticity from J & A Mitchell & Company stating this bottle was the fourth bottle of Springbank 1919 released onto the market in 1989 and subsequently sold by Fortnum & Mason prior to purchase by the current owner in May 1997.
This lot is sold lying at Christie's, London
