Photographs and condition
Keep enough context around close-ups of front and back labels, closure, fill level, bottle base, batch or cask markings, box and accessories. Use steady focus and enough surrounding area to locate each detail.
Leave untouched and photograph fill level, closure, labels, bottle, box and any numbered accessories. Note anything that is damaged, replaced or no longer present.
Storage, accessories and handover
Between photography and handover, keep the whisky upright, stable and away from heat or sunlight. Retain the seal, stopper, cork, closure and label in their present condition.
For a clear packaging match, keep every bottle with its matching box, booklet, certificate and purchase documents.
