Question
Hello,
I have an unopened bottle of 1959 Canadian Club whiskey in a beautiful red leather box with white satin lining.  Can you tell me its approximate value?
Thanks,
Pam

Answer
Hi Pam

Distilled spirits like this don't change much over time--the alcohol levels are too high.  The good news is that yours will be perfectly good to drink.  The bad news is that it won't have appreciated in value the way some fine wines do.  Yours is probabaly worth about the same as a current bottling of the same product.

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