Lot 269 - Haigs Gold Label 1940s Spring Cap

Estimate: £200 - £300

A fine old example of Haig's Gold Label, bottled with the old spring-cap around the 1940's. The Haig family had a long history of distilling going back as far as the 15th Century. Since 1824 when Cameronbridge distillery was opened by John Haig, Haig has been a big brand in the whisky world. As part of a distilling dynasty John Haig became important in the regulation of Whisky production and was a spokesman for the industry. Although the brand began to shrink in the 1970s, in the last couple of years it has seen a healthy revival with the help of Mr Posh Spice David Beckham. There are no measurements for strength or capacity on the bottle.
