A
s the first spirits auction in 2025, this highly anticipated sale is a truly historical one. With a grand total of 942 lots and 2000+ bottles, this is the largest Spirits auction ever held in Hong Kong, breaking Sotheby’s previous records by a large margin. This is also one of the most diverse auctions we’ve ever held, covering over 50 different top distilleries/producers across multiple categories of spirits, including Scotch, Japanese Whiskies, Bourbon, Moutai, Rum, Cognac and Armagnac…etc. Out of the 942 lots, 435 lots are being offered at NO RESERVE, which would be an exciting opportunity for buyers to discover hidden gems that they would not have considered before and embrace the incredibly wide spectrum of flavours the spirits world has to offer!
There is also an upsurging amount of new Japanese whiskies popping up in the secondary market, which we will also be featuring in this auction. In the past few years, new micro-distilleries have been built all around Japan with new producers trying out and experimenting with malt varieties, fermentation and ageing methods that are vastly different from traditional producers. This is a trend that we are happy to see and will continue to support by featuring these products in our auctions.
作為2025年蘇富比首場烈酒拍賣，本場極富歷史意義，呈獻共942項拍品、超過2000瓶珍稀陳釀，為香港有史以來最大型的烈酒拍賣，數量大幅刷新蘇富比以往的紀錄，萬眾期待。本場亦是蘇富比歷來最多元化的拍賣，涵蓋來自逾50間不同頂級蒸餾廠和生產商的出品，包括蘇格蘭威士忌、日本威士忌、波本威士忌、茅台陳釀、朗姆酒、珍罕干邑、雅文邑等等。全場942項拍品中，有435項拍品不設底價，為買家帶來令人興奮的機會，入手之前未曾考慮的隱藏珍品，細賞不同烈酒所呈現的各種極致風味。
近年二級市場出現大量新款日本威士忌，蘇富比亦將之囊括於本場中。過去數年，日本各地開設了不少新式微型蒸餾所，這類新生產商不斷嘗試，試驗與傳統蒸餾所大相逕庭的麥芽品種與發酵和陳釀方法。蘇富比樂見這個發展趨勢，亦會繼續在拍場推出這類日本威士忌，以表支持。
