A bottle of 26 year old GlenDronach single malt whisky signed by President-elect Donald Trump has sold at auction in Glasgow for £6,000.
Bottled in 2012 to commemorate the opening of Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeenshire, the limited edition 26 year old GlenDronach was one of the featured lots in today’s McTear’s Rare and Collectable whisky auction.
The limited edition whisky, which was distilled in 1985 and matured in a sherry cask, was given an estimate of £2500 to £3500.
Despite many online, phone and in room bids, the GlenDronach was purchased by a Canadian buyer for a hammer price of £6,000.
McTear’s Whisky Expert, Laurie Black, said: “There was a huge amount of interest in the bottle and we were delighted with the final price, which was several times more than previous Trump bottles have sold for.
“The GlenDronach is a stunning whisky in its own right however, the Trump connection gave this particular bottle a presidential boost.”
