“This unique piece, crafted in sycamore, walnut and brass by Linley Design perfectly showcases the breadth and depth of the inventory that we are privileged to work with. Remarkable liquids set within a rare composition. A treasure to collect.”
Inspired by the Gordon family’s ancestral home and hand-crafted in sycamore, walnut and brass by the renowned Linley Design consultancy, House of Hazelwood presents 'Christmas at Hazelwood'– a unique architectural box in the form of an Advent Calendar.
The box contains a 5cl measure of every House of Hazelwood whisky released to date behind 24 numbered advent doors, alongside a full 70cl bottle of a unique 51 year-old sherry cask matured blend, said to be the perfect whisky to be opened and shared on Christmas Day.
The rare whiskies held behind the advent doors include the very first drops of whisky to run off the stills at Girvan distillery, the last existing drops from a number of closed distilleries and lost styles of whisky that can no longer be produced today.
Both the 70cl bottle of whisky at the heart of the box and the architectural box itself are unique pieces that can only be purchased through the One of One auction.
House of Hazelwood
For almost one hundred years, generations of the Gordon family have carefully laid down stocks of whisky for special occasions and personal consumption. This rare collection has become known as House of Hazelwood, after the family’s Dufftown home – Hazelwood House.
Today, the House of Hazelwood collection has grown to become the greatest inventory of aged Scotch whisky held anywhere in the world. Spanning seven decades and every corner of Scotland, the diverse whiskies held in cask tell stories of remarkable places, lost ways of working, first casks, last casks, the ambitions and achievements of several lifetimes – none of which will be repeated again.
