St Magdalene 1981 Bottled 1990s - Connoisseurs Choice 5cl

A miniature bottle of St Magdalene Lowland single malt Scotch whisky, distilled in 1981 and bottled by Gordon & MacPhail as part of the Connoisseurs Choice series. The bottling code indicates this was bottled in 1997.

St Magdalene (also known as Linlithgow) was a Lowland distillery that operated for over 200 years before closing in 1983. Since then, it has become one of the most lamented lost distilleries and its whiskies are highly sought-after.

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.
