About Invergordon

Invergordon is a whisky distillery. Invergordon 1988 30 Year Old Old Particular is an age-stated bottling at 30 years old, distilled in 1988.

What drives this bottle's value

  • Single vintage

    Distilled in a single year (1988), so the available batch is inherently finite.

  • Considerable age

    A 30-year age statement reflects long maturation and the small surviving volume that implies — older stock is scarcer.

These are scarcity and demand signals drawn from the bottle's own attributes — they describe the bottle, not a prediction of future price. Not investment advice.
