About SMWS G10.23 Strathclyde

What drives this bottle's value

  • Single vintage

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

  • Considerable age

    A 31-year age statement reflects long maturation and the small surviving volume that implies — older stock is scarcer.

  • Named / limited release

    Released as SMWS G10.23 Strathclyde 1988 31 Year Old, a named edition rather than part of the standard core range.

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.
