S.S. Politician Blended Scotch Whisky

Whisky Galore (75cl)
Lot #1300221
FINISH DATE

In October 1989, a company was formed to recover the wreck from the infamous S.S. Politician, which ran aground on the 5th of February in 1941 off Eriskay in the outer Hebrides of Scotland. Towards the end of 1990 and nearly 50 years after the sinking, the bold salvage operation yielded a number of intact and perfect bottles from the wreck. The precious and most rare contents of these bottles have been blended with reserved stocks of the finest Scotch malt and grain whiskies to produce these individually numbered decanters.
Blended Whisky

Blended whisky is an artful marriage of different types of whiskies, typically combining grain whiskies with malt whiskies from various distilleries. This blending process aims to achieve a balance, creating a whisky with a harmonious flavour profile where the strengths of each component are highlighted, while any potential weaknesses are cleverly masked. Blended whiskies offer a consistent taste across batches, making them a favourite for both new whisky drinkers and connoisseurs alike. They can vary widely in style, often providing a smoother, more approachable character than single malts, and are perfect for enjoying neat, on the rocks, or as the foundation for a cocktail. Each blend is a unique recipe, often kept secret by master blenders, showcasing their expertise in creating a spirit that's greater than the sum of its parts.

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.
