Wiser's 18 year old from 1959

[velocci]

hi all, my mother just passed on to me a sealed bottle of Wiser's 18 year old from 1959 for father's day. anyone know if this bottle would be worth something?

I think it would be worth keeping.

And drinking.

do you think its still drinkable? not that i would, i'm just wondering.

Many moons ago I opened a bottle of either a 12 or 18 year-old whisky that was my dad's that had been sitting around, sealed, for at least ten-years more. There was a sort of sugar crust on the inside top of the bottle and the whisky did taste, well, very sweet.

I don't know if the sugar crust formed naturally in the bottle or if there was some kind of contamination or leak.

So, to answer your question - I'm sorry, I don't know.

Surly worth drinking... post your notes on how you think it tastes... would be very interested in hearing your thoughts
