Description

A miniature bottle of Ambassador Scotch Whisky, sealed with a cork stopper. This was blended and bottled by Bloch Brothers (Distillers) Ltd., with distilleries at Glen Scotia, Argyll, and Scapa, Kirkwall. We estimate this was bottled in the 1940s.

Please note, there is no size or ABV stated on the label.

This bottle is from a large collection of miniatures purchased by the seller at an auction in 1979. The collection is mainly comprised of blended Scotch whiskies and single malts bottled in the first half of the 20th century.

The Ambassador brand was originally produced by Taylor & Ferguson Ltd., and was a popular blend in the US. Following WWII, Taylor & Ferguson Ltd. was absorbed by Bloch Brothers who continued to market the Ambassador brand in the US. In 1954, Bloch Brothers was acquired by Hiram Walker.

This Ambassador sold at our online auction for £12
