Bell's Royal Vat 12 Years Old Bottled 1940s / 75cl / 40%

A bottle of Bell's Royal Vat 12 Year Old Liqueur Blended Scotch Whisky. Blended and bottled by Arthur Bell & Sons Ltd. Imported by G. F. Heublein Bros. Inc.

This bottle is from the collection of Bill Pigati, whose family have owned Del Rio, a famous restaurant near Chicago, since the 1920s.

The majority of the bottles in the collection were purchased in the 1940s and early 1950s, and it is mainly comprised of blended scotch whiskies, which were very popular during the period.

Some of these gems are from the famous big names we all recognise, however there are many amazing brands with beautiful labels that we know very little about which are much sought after by collectors around the world.
