Lord Calvert 5 Year Old Bottled 1930s - The Calvert Distilling Co. 4.7cl

A miniature bottle of Lord Calvert 5 Year Old straight rye Canadian whiskey, bottled at 50% ABV for the US market and imported by The Calvert Distilling Co.

The Canadian tax strip reads 1931. This indicates that the youngest whisky in the bottle was distilled in 1931.

This lot comes from the extensive collection of a Merseyside collector who began his hobby with bottles bought for guests as digestifs at private dinner parties in the early 1970s. His interest led to him advertising in the UK national newspapers, and buying and selling bottles as far afield as Australia, America and Ireland, with his last significant addition being a collection he purchased from Stoke On Trent in 1984.
