Many old bottles of whiskey, bourbon and scotch are worth a lot of money. As an example, Old Kentucky rifle and old forester from the 1970s can get around $800+ a bottle of unopened. They sold for around $4 a bottle originally. Even opened bottles can get money depending on what they are. My best friend just found a bottle of 1970s wild Turkey in his father in laws cabinet unopened. Probably will get close to a $1,000 for it. If that weller is unopened it is probably worth a fortune. The dickle too. Get an appraiser or someone who knows a lot about liquor. I’ve got a few whiskey/bourbon guys near me that do tastings of rare stuff. If you want I can send them these pictures. Is there more?
