What drives this bottle's value

  • Named / limited release

    Released as horsewhite, a named edition rather than part of the standard core range.

  • Non-standard format

    Bottled in a 1000ml format rather than the standard 700ml, which sets it apart from the regular run.

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.
