What affects the value of Macallan Edition Series

The label

Each Edition Series label is a different colour, with a gold border around the outside (although edition number 5 has a silver border). The Macallan logo is present at the top of the label, and the text underneath notes the edition number. The details of the collaboration, if there is one, are on the bottom half of the label.

Any tears, creases, marks, or scratches to the label will affect the value of the bottle. The label should be in pristine condition.

The bottle

The Macallan Edition series is bottled in the new style Macallan bottle that features a triangular label at the base of the neck. The label depicts Easter Elchies house and the text “EST. 1824”. All of the bottles are 700ml.

The condition of the bottle is vital to getting a fair price for your Macallan Edition Series. The capsule should not have any nicks in it and the label should be in good condition.

The box

The Macallan Edition Series bottlings come with a cardboard box that is the colour of the corresponding edition. The box features an infographic of a cask, and details of the casks that were vatted together to produce the bottle. The absence of a box can negatively affect the value of your bottle, as collectors see the bottle as more collectible if it comes with an accompanying box.

The condition of the box is also an important factor to consider. If the box is damaged then this will decrease the value of your Macallan Edition Series.

The level

As with all whisky, the spirit level in the neck of your Macallan Edition series bottle is important and has a significant impact on the value. Ideally, the liquid should sit in the wide part of the neck. Lower levels, below the shoulder especially, will lower the value of the bottle.

When you are storing your bottle please consider adding an additional seal – clingfilm or a specialist seal such as Parafilm – over the capsule. This will help stop the level dropping. Always store your bottle upright and in a cool place out of direct sunlight.

The edition number

The series ran from 2015 to 2020, and Edition Number 1 is now by far the most valuable and sought-after due to the fact that it was somewhat overlooked when it was first released. As bottles of Edition 1 are rarer, they command a higher premium. The rest of the Editions are worth around the same price. So, make sure you double check which Edition you have before forming an expectation of value.

The casks

Each bottle in the Edition Series is a vatting of a number of special casks, often in collaboration with perfumers and whisky makers. Although the casks that make up the bottle do not make a huge difference in price, a collector may be willing to pay more if a certain cask is included in the mix, or if they find the collaboration particularly exciting. This will not make a massive difference to price, but it is something to bear in mind.

How we can help you sell your bottle

Private Sale

Selling your bottle through our audience of private buyers can get a high price for you bottle and the convenience of a quick turn around on your sale. All we need is a good picture of your bottle stood up, ideally with the box if you have it and we can collect no obligation offers from our buyers for your consideration.

Auction

Auction can be the most suitable route for some bottles offering a wide audience of buyers. There is more element of risk in selling at auction as you have less control over the original price and usually takes longer to complete than a private sale. It is also important to choose the right specialist auction for you bottle, and we can advise you on this.

Shop

Our online store launched in 2020 with an aim to bridge the gap between selling at auction and the prices you see at retail, helping you get more for your bottle. Selling via our online shop can achieve more than at auction or private sale but can take longer to complete, so requires the time to get your ideal price realised.

How To Sell Your Macallan Edition Series

Sell your bottle of whisky in 5 simple steps

STEP 1: Send us photographs of your bottle
The easiest way to find out how much your bottle of your whisky is worth is to send us a photograph of your bottle. The picture should be of the bottle standing up, please include the box if you have it.

We use the photograph to check:
- The condition of the bottle, label and box
- The level of the spirit, as this has the biggest effect on value and varies even if the bottle has not been opened
You can send you images to [email protected] or use the contact form below

STEP 2: We approach our contacts

We contact our extensive network of industry and private buyers who will make offers if they are interested in your whisky. We can broker sales internationally, ensuring your whisky reaches the largest possible audience.

Selling privately gives you more control over the process compared to selling at auction and ensures you get the best price for your whisky. Auction can sometimes be the best option, but commission often means there is a 50% difference between what the buyer pays and the seller receives.

Once all offers have been received we will contact you with the offers. You are welcome to discuss the offers with us.

STEP 3: If you want to proceed we issue you with a contract

Once you have decided to accept an offer we will issue you with a contract for the agreed price.

The contract is an agency agreement giving us the right to complete the sale of your bottle on your behalf. It is the same as the contract you would receive if you sold at auction, except the price is agreed and forms an integral part of the agreement. It outlines all our legal obligations to you acting as your agent and also covers payment terms.

Our brokerage fee is 10% for private sales, including VAT.

There are no other charges, except the courier fee if you decide to use that service. Please see STEP 4 for more information.

STEP 4: Send your bottle to Mark Littler LTD

Once the contract has been signed you send your bottle to Mark Littler, you can arrange this yourself, or you can use our fully insured courier service.

Our courier service includes all packing material and is insured up to £40,000. It also includes a pre-paid return postage label and an instruction sheet on how to pack your bottle.

Once packed you simply drop the parcel at your local post office.

The cost for this service is £15.

STEP 5: We complete the sale and send your payment

We check the item is as expected and is in the condition you said.

We arrange to meet the buyer and deliver the bottle or bottles to the buyer and complete the sale.

Once the sale is complete your payment is sent via BACS, less any courier service charge, if applicable, and our fees.

Depending on the availability of the buyer you will receive payment within 1 – 5 days, the average is 48 hours.

When we were unsure about how to go about selling part of our whisky collection, we looked online and found that Mark had some very good... reviews.

Well having now completed the process, I can say that Mark and his whole team are absolutely excellent. We were guided through different ways to sell different bottles. Help with packaging and transport is provided, and advice on bottle values was good.

They have now all been sold, and at very pleasing prices.

Highly recommended!read more

I bought my husband a hogshead of Bowmore for his 30th birthday. We’ve been happily paying warehouse rental for 25 years and decided we needed to... look into next steps. The warehouse wasn’t very helpful so we started to look on the internet for a whisky broker. There appeared to be a lot of choice but Marks credentials and website information stood out from the crowd. He immediately set us at ease and so we looked no further. We have enjoyed our interactions and have felt from the start that Mark had our best interests at heart with his professional approach, transparency and personal touch. He has kept us informed along the journey which has been an exciting one. As part of the service Mark facilitated the gauging, sampling and selling of the barrel and also coordinated for us to receive a few bottles of this amber nectar for our own consumption. To top it off he achieved a fabulous price. We would recommend Mark to anyone who is lucky enough to have whisky to sell. Many thanks for your service Mark!read more

I approached Mark Littler about selling my bottle of whisky. I delivered the bottle to their office and was very impressed with their setup. A price... was agreed and the contract was signed. It took about 4 months but a buyer was found and I was kept informed of how the sale was progressing, then on Christmas Eve I received an email saying the sale had been completed and the money was in my account.

I recently approached Mark Littler Ltd to value and sell a number of bottles of Whisky left to me by my late father.
Account Manager Hannah... Thompson completed the transaction faultlessly throughout. She was quick to establish which were the highly collectable bottles and which I would just have to enjoy drinking. I had a very good idea which bottles would fetch the best price and Hannah confirmed that for me. After putting the bottles to their database of clients, I soon had a best offer which stacked up against other vendors. On accepting the offer a courier delivered all the packing boxes the following day and we dropped everything packed to the post office. Hannah confirmed receipt and a couple of days later Mark called to confirm that he had just sent the proceeds to me - All very painless!
Many companies make a lot of promises these days but never quite deliver - Mark Littler is very much the exception!read more

What is my bottle of Macallan Edition Series worth?

In order to provide you with an accurate valuation please provide as much of the below information as you can.
There is more information about each section below the form.

How To Sell Your Bottle Of Macallan Edition Series

Sell your bottle of whisky in 5 simple steps

STEP 1: Send us photographs of your bottle
The easiest way to find out how much your bottle of your whisky is worth is to send us a photograph of your bottle. The picture should be of the bottle standing up, please include the box if you have it.

We use the photograph to check:
- The condition of the bottle, label and box
- The level of the spirit, as this has the biggest effect on value and varies even if the bottle has not been opened
You can send you images to [email protected] or use the contact form below

STEP 2: We approach our contacts

We contact our extensive network of industry and private buyers who will make offers if they are interested in your whisky. We can broker sales internationally, ensuring your whisky reaches the largest possible audience.

Selling privately gives you more control over the process compared to selling at auction and ensures you get the best price for your whisky. Auction can sometimes be the best option, but commission often means there is a 50% difference between what the buyer pays and the seller receives.

Once all offers have been received we will contact you with the offers. You are welcome to discuss the offers with us.

STEP 3: If you want to proceed we issue you with a contract

Once you have decided to accept an offer we will issue you with a contract for the agreed price.

The contract is an agency agreement giving us the right to complete the sale of your bottle on your behalf. It is the same as the contract you would receive if you sold at auction, except the price is agreed and forms an integral part of the agreement. It outlines all our legal obligations to you acting as your agent and also covers payment terms.

Our brokerage fee is 10% for private sales, including VAT.

There are no other charges, except the courier fee if you decide to use that service. Please see STEP 4 for more information.

STEP 4: Send your bottle to Mark Littler LTD

Once the contract has been signed you send your bottle to Mark Littler, you can arrange this yourself, or you can use our fully insured courier service.

Our courier service includes all packing material and is insured up to £40,000. It also includes a pre-paid return postage label and an instruction sheet on how to pack your bottle.

Once packed you simply drop the parcel at your local post office.

The cost for this service is £15.

STEP 5: We complete the sale and send your payment

We check the item is as expected and is in the condition you said.

We arrange to meet the buyer and deliver the bottle or bottles to the buyer and complete the sale.

Once the sale is complete your payment is sent via BACS, less any courier service charge, if applicable, and our fees.

Depending on the availability of the buyer you will receive payment within 1 – 5 days, the average is 48 hours.
