A collectible bottling from Adelphi, featuring whisky distilled in 1953 by... Well, a distillery. Adelphi are giving no clues as to which distillery specifically, but they must have been around in 1953 to distil the whisky, so that maybe narrows it down a smidge. Never the less, this is a rare and collectible piece for whisky fans. Please note: The box has a crack running through the front. This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!

Charles and David Gray, brothers, created the Adelphi Distillery in 1826. It was situated on the border of Glasgow's Gorbals neighborhood, just south of the Victoria Bridge. The Gray family ran the distillery until 1880, when Messrs. A. Walker and Co., a business that already possessed sizable distilleries in Limerick and Liverpool, bought it. The Walkers made a financial commitment to the distillery and constructed a Coffey still for the production of grain spirit. Four pot stills and the Coffey still were in full operation by 1886. A year's worth of pure alcohol produced by the distillery was 516,000 imperial gallons (2,350,000 L).
