Description:
A true Unicorn. This is part of Irish Whiskey history, a super rare bottle from 1880. Cassidy's were a distillery based in Monasterevan Co Kildare which have been closed now for over 100 years. A similar bottle sold recently on a Victor Mee auction for E23,000, that bottle did have a slightly better label. We expect to see huge interest in this lot!
