Hi I have a bottle of Midleton 26 year old still in its original packaging and in perfect condition. I am wondering what is it worth and what would be a good way to sell it.

Regards.

Hi Tony,
That's a nice bottle to have. They retail for upwards of €1250. That's shop prices. But you'd expect to pay serious money privately too.
I assume the box has the same number as the bottle. I heard of some that don't and that reduces that value.

If I was selling mine I'd try The Celtic Whiskey Shop or The Whiskey Exchange. You could always go the auction route trough Mealy's or whiskyauctions.com the only thing is the commission would eat into you sale price.

You'd never know a collector here may want one.

Best wishes
Willie

Just checked, the outer cardboard box, the hardwood box and the bottle carry the same number,

The bottle is now seriously for sale, am open to offers

I'd say you could get somewhere around 800 euro for it.
