Overview
Up for auction is a beautiful vintage bottle of Old Smuggler 12 Years Old Blended Scotch Whisky, a premium and aged expression from this historic brand. This lot comes complete with its original branded cardboard box, which has remarkably survived in good vintage condition.
Dating & Import Details
This bottle was produced for the Italian market and imported by the prominent firm P. Soffiantino & Co. - Genova (Lic. U.T.I.F. No. 11).
