Question
i was wondering if you could guess what each bottle might be worth...one bottle
of midleton very rare irish whiskey bottled in 1994. and i also have a bottle of
chivas regal that still has the atf bottle stamp series 112. the bottle says its 12
years old, so if i can find out when those stamps were from, i could atleast
know the age of the whiskey. thanks

Answer
Hi Brandon

You could try contacting Chivas directly, but I think you will be disappointed.  Distilled spirits like this are so high in alcohol that they don't change much over time.  The good news is that these should be perfectly fine to drink, but the bad news is that they really aren't worth any more than a current bottling. I would estimate these at under $50 per bottle.

SOrry that I can't give you more exciting news.
