Information
It was by teaming up with James Roy to form the Roy & Bell Company that Arthur Bell became the first sales agent specializing in whisky. Bell, assisted by his son, quickly took over at the helm of the business and developed a major distribution network from the late 19th century. The first bottling quickly followed and was met with huge success, enabling the company to buy the Blair Athol, Dufftown and Inchgower distilleries, key components in its blends. This was followed by a long period of prosperity, culminating in the 1970s. Sales grew 800% in less than 10 years, production tripled and Bell's flooded the UK market, gaining a share of almost 35%.
A blend produced by Arthur Bell & Sons Ltd, imported by Laurent Ottoz St Christophe for the Aosta region. This version was aged for 12 years and bottled before the mid-1970s (the year on the tax strip refers to the year of bottling). The whiskies in the blend were distilled in the early-to-mid-1960s. Bottle equipped with a silver-stamped gold screw cap.
