How old is my bottle

ankles · 2020-12-02 22:32:42

Found an old bottle of Redbreast 12 year old in a gift box in my parent's house. Figuring it must be twenty years old. Trying to figure out how old it is. Looks like there is a "2" on the bottom of the bottle. Any ideas?

Post up pictures sure.

One thing to check for starters is does it say "Pure Pot Still" or "Single Pot Still" on the bottle.

If it's the former it's at least a decade old (open to correction on the exact date of the change).
