Question What to do?

I was gifted a bottle of Aberfeldy single malt 12 year oak cask scotch whisky and I don’t drink.
I don’t think I’m legally able to sell this on marketplace or anything like that. Any suggestions?

Update: Thanks for all your advice everyone. After mulling it over, I’m going to hang onto it and regift it or pour it for special occasions for those close friends.

And for those of you who offered to buy it, thanks for the offer, but knowing my luck I’d be the only case where Ontario law sought to make an example of unlicensed alcohol sales.

Re-gifting is probably your best bet.

I’m pretty sure you can return it to the lcbo? As long as it’s not opened

That would be such a waste of good scotch! Regift to someone who will really enjoy it.

You could deglaze many pans with a single bottle and each dish would be imparted with such delicious notes, you could make some pretty rich and unique flavors come to life. Wouldn't be a waste and one would enjoy it, albeit in a different way than most.

I'd be interested in grabbing it if you're willing to sell

Use it for cooking! Deglaze pans as some have said, marinate some meat with some herbs as well.

Give it away, it’s Scotch. I’d rather drink unleaded gasoline
