Photographs and condition
For the first image set, include front and back labels, closure, fill level, bottle base, batch or cask markings, box and accessories. Include the packaging where it helps match a mark to the item.
Make any wear clear by photographing fill level, closure, labels, bottle, box and any numbered accessories. Do not rearrange parts simply to make the item appear complete.
Storage, accessories and handover
After taking the photos, store the whisky upright in a shaded place with a steady room temperature. Leave the seal, stopper, cork, closure and label unchanged.
From photography through handover, keep every bottle with its matching box, booklet, certificate and purchase documents.
