About Speyside

Speyside names a Scotch whisky region — Speyside — rather than a single distillery: this is an undisclosed-distillery bottling that discloses only its region of origin. Speyside Blended Malt 1988 Lombard 75cl is a no-age-statement bottling, distilled in 1988.

What drives this bottle's value

  • Single vintage

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

  • Non-standard format

    Bottled in a 750ml 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.
