The only info I could come up with is details about the manufacturer. I'm more interested in how many bottles were produced, how does it taste, and suggestions on if it should be drank or held onto considering it's rarity.  :thanx:

Scotch can certainly get too old.  Its meant to be enjoyed.  Drink up!

It's currently selling for about $500 a bottle (700 ml).  It's a Speyside and that particular year should be saved for financial purposes unless you really want to taste a rare whisky.

Hard to find any info on this one. All I can find is that it was the last cask from that distillery before it closed, but no information on how many casks of it there were, or how many bottles were produced. Saw a couple reviews of other vintages from this distiller, which were being scored around the mid to upper 80's. Kept sealed, and stored in a cool dark location, it should keep as long as you want to hold onto it. I saw another bottle of this vintage being offered for something like 650 Pounds. Wish I could have found something more.

Drink it if you want, hold onto it for a special occasion, or sell it for some spare cash.

Thanks for all the replys. I found pretty much the same things as all of you. Really not allot of information kept back then i guess. Anyway once again thanks for the input but I'm still unsure if I'm going to make an offer to buy this or not.

I've got about 40% left of bottle of Dallas Dhu 1982 Gordon & Macphail 21 year bottling, it's a Speyside unlike any other, except for another Dallas. If you've not tried a "black river" before, then yes open it up and enjoy.
something should go here, I've no witty banter to employ, so enjoy, my ploy... got nothin

If want to make some money on it, it looks like it could be worth something big down the road. I tend to believe it's going to be enjoyed by someone at some point and think if it were mine, I would be the guy savoring it on special occasions.

I know this might sound stupid to some, but it's not always about the money. Sometimes it's about the enjoyment you get from something.
