The stunning NFT and original artwork included in this sale is set in 1948 - Hong Kong – The Year of the Dram.

Harry Harrison - Edition 1 - NFT No.1
Being asked to create a piece of art and a special NFT to commemorate the auction of a 72-year-old whisky in Hong Kong immediately threw up the questions "What was Hong Kong like in 1948, and has it matured as well as the whisky?". Having witnessed Hong Kong's spirit prevail through various crises over the last three decades, one can only imagine that three years after the privations of war and occupation, this great city would be going full steam ahead. The thought also sprang to mind that, had the cask of Gordon & MacPhail - Glen Grant Single Malt turned up on these shores back then, there probably wouldn't be any left to auction now. So, I've tried to create something that's both a celebration of the spirit of Hong Kong as imagined in 1948, and a celebration of the spirit on auction, but when it comes to maturity, my money's on the whisky! Sláinte!
