McTear's 26 Malts Countdown

McTear's are having a countdown to one of our biggest Rare and Collectable Whisky auctions on the 2nd of November.

We're selling a rare collection of 26 malt bottles of Whisky. The original project (named 26 Malts) was a collaboration between The Scotch Malt Whisky Society and 26. In early 2005, 26 writers were teamed up with 26 designers, 18 teams north of the border and eight teams south. The pairings were randomly decided to compound the nature of creative adventure.
