OVERALL CONDITION

original and used. Hinge is excellent and the cork looks original. I have tested the cork for noxious residues like aniseed and can confirm that it smells clean so likely to be safe for your single malt. Unusually this flask does not appear to have been engraved or erased.

FAULTS

quite a few body bumps, especially to the corners, but still a useful and robust flask of good capacity.
