Please note:
Legal ownership of the cask will be transferred to the buyer once payment has been received and cleared by PWA. Funds will be held by PWA until the buyer is in legal receipt of the cask ownership to ensure we protect the buyer's transaction.
Ownership of this cask is auctioned in bond. The buyer will be responsible for any costs relating to removing the cask from bond in the future (i.e UK excise duty / VAT) as well as any other costs associated with cask movement and bottling, if applicable.
Non-UK buyers must appoint a duty representative to act on his/her behalf for transfer of ownership of the cask. The duty representative will need to be registered with HMRC and will normally charge an annual fee for the service.
Please note if the new owner is a UK revenue trader (business), they will need to be registered with HMRC and hold a WOWGR certificate.
Distillery Information
Annandale Distillery was established in 1836 by George Donald, an excise officer who named the site after the valley it sits in just 15 minutes from the English border.
Their key expressions are a peated whisky named Man O'Sword (after King Robert the Bruce) and an unpeated whisky named Man O'Words (after the infamous Robert Burns).
