Talking about how she came to own the alcohol, she said: "They've been in my possession for 50 years, but they came into our house in the 1950s. My grandfather bought them home one day to the horror of my grandmother and said, "look what I got."

"The landlord was closing his pub down and said, 'would you like these bottles?' And he said, 'yes.' And she said, 'what am I going to do with those?' They've been put away ever since."
But it turns out her grandmother's dismay at her husband bringing the bottles home and then hiding them in the loft wasn't the best idea. "So when you say they've been put away in the attic, that's not great because obviously, you have got some evaporation that's going on here. So that is going to affect it a bit.
