January whisky auctions saw a diversity of styles. Notable antique bottles appeared at Sotheby’s sale of Bourbon and rye in New York, as well as a 12-bottle case of private barrel Pappy Van Winkle Family Reserve 20 year old distilled at Stitzel-Weller Distillery and bottled in 2007 for a restaurant in San Francisco. It fetched a hammer price of $130,000, valuing each bottle at $10,800.
