This collection should be kept whole and intact. Mr. Goodings pursuit would be better served in a museum as a testiment to his dedication, percivernce and passion. It would be fascinating to visit the entire collection. Cheers to Mr Gooding.

I totally agree with you, Michael....it is so beautiful as a whole....it should be a kind of living museum (don't know how, but some kind of "Living Liquid Whisky Experience" (not like the one in Edinburgh, but kinda...more available bottles to taste...and maybe a project to make it last forever....such as recording every tasting made in a room nearby, to verse it to a wide digital tasting bank one could consult from all over the world, like a living liquid library (...). So, when Angus says '"it would energize the secondary market", me I hear only that it will increase the greed of the buyers & the speculation of many flippers then...Not sure it was the finest idea about this amazing collection...😒

I suspect they were willed to either petulant, undeserving recipients who don't care about anything but the money it will give them, OR maybe, and preferably, this was the will of Mr. Goodings. Maybe this is how he wanted to pay it forward after he left this earth.

Whiskey was meant to drink, not rot in a museum and collect dust. Break it up and let people enjoy what is in inside. The collection thing is so silly

Why put a large collection of whiskey that was meant to enjoy in a museum so that it is basically lost on the world forever? That doesn't seem right. Sell them to people that will appreciate them.

What a shame to break up this collection, it should be kept as is.

He was a great man , It was great to work for you Richard. R.I.P.

Got damn. That ain't no collection. It's art. Extremely impressive!

I'm in tears...thank God for that passion! With 10, 15 or 20 million, I would buy it ALL. SPECTACULAR!!!!!!!!!

I usually don't comment on YT but this brought me close to tears. The passion and addiction this man had is amazing. I am a small collector by myself. It would be so beautiful if someone buys it and open it and displays it for public. The legacy of one man for everyone. I even dreamed about it yesterday. Breathtaking.

I totally agree with you Andreas. Being a whisky/whiskey connoisseur myself, I would have been delighted to learn Mr Gooding`s collection was to be sold in it`s entirety, on the condition it not be opened. In my opinion, to destroy such a unique collection by selling the bottles off individually, is essentially an act of vandalism. To have a chance to simply view this collection, would be a rare privilege indeed. I for one would pay to see it.

If you started today, knew what to look for, and had the patience and discipline to save bottles, you don't have to be rich. Then, like all good investments, give it some time to age, and within 20 to 30 years you're going to be looking like a rich man. So cross step one off your list.

What a sight! What a fantastic collection. I hope many will be opened and tasted.

Wow! It really is amazing what someone can collect with unlimited resources.

This is heaven for a whiskey lover

Unique personality so dedicated to wishky is awesome fantastic marvelous wonderful he deserves commendations!!!! A heartiest cheeeeeeeeeeeeeers 🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷

Always liked auctions because it has allowed me to get things that could never get when they were sold etc. I hate the fact that people collect to not drink though.... Whisky is someone's art and craft, meant to be sipped:)

Came up on my recommendations and jesus christ that is beautiful a library essentially and yet sad because a man like that couldnt taste them all

Not only collected good whisky, he drank it and shared it!

Wow 💯 😍😍

I am going to rewatch this video tonight while i sip on a dram of Macallan 12 Double Cask.

I think Mr Lahey would agree that this man has truly become, "The Liquor ".

Thank you,ill take all the Macallan.

wish I had friends like that

That’s the kind of library in which I’d care to read all day! Superb. Did Angus leave the room with empty pockets? Or did he just catch up on some reading while there? Anybody check?

I think instead of selling it they should keep the collection going and instead of somebody buying a bottle somebody should donate a bottle and keep it growing

Oh my God ❤️

DAMN!!!

I intend to finish every bottle in my collection to the bottom. I don't understand the point of staring at the bottles.

Recently I planned a TimeCapsule sort of thing and wanted to put some whisky bottles in it. I used cling flim to cover the: 1. Neck/Cap/Seal to prevent evaporation 2. Bottle Labels to preserve them 3. Outer Cardbox Can anyone suggest me whether this is the correct way or not because I don't want my clingfilm to stick permanently to the labels and deteriorate it instead. Thanks 🙂

impressive

100% Agree!😉🙏

he built this house specially vor his collecktion i hope i donth cry in heaven seeing this colecktion breaks appart rest in peace mr gooding rip

Amazing. Look up Dwane Poor - he has fantastic collection of 6500 bottles. And he drank/tried them all apart from 3. But those are 1/1 bottles so that's understandable. I absolutely love the idea of collecting AND trying them all. Not just buying 1 bottle and that's it. Buy 2-3 enjoy and share them.

Wonder how many of these bottles are counterfeit? I do. If not THESE bottles, then knock-offs of these bottles elsewhere. When I hear “He has TEN of them, I never saw ONE before!” I am reminded of the multi-million dollar vintage wine scandals from earlier this century.

He bought most of the bottles new and direct from the distillery, and most at a time well before the whisky boom. 20 years ago few people were even interested in a 40yo Laphroaig, people just didn’t care. He must’ve paid pennies on the dollar for most of these.

This guy has a nice collection no one can’t fuck with him

A collector advised me _not_ to keep whiskies out of their caskets as light fades the liquid. Not sure if this is true? Edit - Ask a stupid question, but of course, a prerequisite for a bottle to enter into any given collection is that the bottle is and shall always remain _unopened?_

I don’t agree. I live ten minutes from this collection, and Mr. Gooding frequented all the local pubs here in Colorado talking about sharing whisky and letting it find good homes that will consume it. Nothing is truly permanent, the collection had its time as a single entity, and is now time to move on. Plus he willed it to be sold at auction.

shame about the whisky-part though .. If only it had been Sherry..

How dare they sell his collection, never in History will be a collection like this, im so angry from this self called experts (scamers).

What are you on about? The bright lighting in the video are the result of studio lighting kits the production team brought. You can see their reflection in the bottles. It’s not that bright in there normally. The room is temperature and humidity controlled. Bottles are kept upright. And he kept all the boxes safely in storage. Seriously do people bother thinking before firing off whatever dumb thought pops in their head anymore?

I'd be like a bull in a china shop

I think the saddest part of this whole video is he didnt drink it all before he died. 😄 That's worse than buying a bunch of old sports cars and not driving them

Dewayne’s collection is in now way better, it’s only larger. Gooding’s collection is far more diverse and represents far more forgotten and lost distilleries. It’s a much classier, better researched collection. And he actually put in the miles tracking down bottles. Cannot say the same for Dewayne.

The fact that all of them are colsed is frustrating.

Many were visibly opened and had purple stickers marked on them to denote that. Especially with the Balvenies and Port Ellens.
