Hi.
Is there anyone who has or knows someone / a place where I can get my hands on an empty box/case for a Graham's Single Harvest 1961. ??
If so, just drop me a message..
I'm close to complete my collection og the Graham's Single Harvest - and the 1961 is the only bottle missing a box..
I will pay for it.!
I'm in Denmark - have the bottle, just no box/case

As I recall the 1961 was very limited in its release - only Portugal, the UK, and a smattering of places in Asia like Hong Kong and Taiwan. But you never know, someone here might have scored a bottle and be willing to part with the box.

So how did you end up with a bottle but no box?

The shop in Portugal where I bought it from, had made a mistake at some point - and only had one bottle left, but no box for it..

Oh bummer. If it has the really nice stained wood top, I love to reuse those as coasters.

Yes - I definitely want to use those wood tops to something, when the bottles are empty..

That is some line up. Never had one of their colheita's. I like their vintage ports, but not some much their regular tawny.

The problem of the missing box for a Graham's Single Harvest 1961 is solved..
I have gotten my hands on a empty box for my Graham's Single Harvest 1961.. :)
I wrote a mail to Graham's / Symington and ask about if they had any ideas about where I could find a empty box for a SH61..
They wrote back, that they had a empty box left in there warehouse in Porto, and that they were happy to ship it to me - free of charge..
So today I received a box..
That's what I call great customer service..
