Rest and Be Thankful was the inscription on a stone placed by soldiers at the top of Glen Croe in 1753: the climb through the valley is so long and steep that it was traditional for travellers to rest at this point and be thankful for having completed the climb.

Rest and Be Thankful Whisky Company do not just bottle the finest rare single malt whiskies from the best distilleries: they bottle a state of mind that allows the drinker to experience the same feeling of bliss and contentment felt by those weary travellers all those years ago...

Matured in a French Oak cask for 7 years. Cask Filled 19/03/2008 then bottled 6th May 2015. This is a super heavily peated whisky limited to only 316 bottles; each is individually numbered and bottled at full cask strength.

Non-chill filtered and colouring free.
Bruichladdich

Since Murray McDavid saved the distillery in 2000, with an asking price of £6.5 million. Bruichladdich has gone from strength to strength after a difficult initial period. Now under the ownership of Remy Cointreau, it is one of Islay’s most recognisable whiskies and brands. Remy brought much-needed financial clout that has allowed Bruichladdich to expand into new markets, build warehousing and pursue its brand of terroir. Today, it offers 3 distinctly different distillates, with the Bruichladdich being unpeated, a historical homage to a lost distillery (Port Charlotte) is heavily peated and well regarded. Then at the top of the peat ranking charts is Octomore, which pushes peat in new directions to an eager audience. Expect production details, various casks and eye-catching branding with each and every release from the distillery.

Frequently Asked Questions

You’ll need an account with us to place bids in any auction. Registration takes 60 seconds and there’s a small £5.00 registration fee, payable by credit or debit card. Once paid, you will be registered and can place bids in the auction immediately. The registration fee helps us ensure you’re a real person and a genuine bidder.
In the interest of fairness, any bids placed in the final five minutes of a particular lot will extend the end time of that Lot by 15 minutes. We believe in giving our customers a fair amount of time to increase their bid should they wish. Last second sniping isn’t in the spirit of our auctions and by using this system there is no benefit to doing so.
