Ainslie’s Whisky Corkscrew

$65 AUD

Clearly dating from the times when whisky bottles were sealed with cork, this useful promotional item probably goes back to at least the 1920s and may even be pre-First World War.

However, it is not clear when the Ainslie’s blend first appeared although the company itself dates from 1868. It became Ainslie & Heilbron (Distillers) Ltd in 1921 and was acquired by DCL in 1925 and its products continued as secondary brands of the group until they were withdrawn from the market in 1998 when the company was sold into foreign ownership.
