Strict Fulfillment Terms: SPECIAL FULFILLMENT RESTRICTIONS FOR THIS SALE: Mixed cases in 'The Lifelong Collection of Brian Heffernan' are pre-packaged and CANNOT be opened, repackaged, or shipped by courier for any reason whatsoever. Fulfillment is strictly limited to:
1. Local Pickup in Calgary: Alberta residents may pick up their purchases at our Calgary facility.
2. Consolidated Toronto Pickup: Buyers in the Greater Toronto Area can arrange to have their cases shipped on an aggregated skid level to our office in Etobicoke for a flat fee of $50 per case.

Brian was meticulous in both the curation and physical care of his collection. All bottles were stored horizontally—either in low-light conditions or sealed within original cardboard cases—and housed in a subterranean basement cellar. Ambient storage temperatures remained stable at approximately 18°C (64°F). Note that active mechanical cooling systems were decommissioned approximately five years ago; collectors should account for this slightly elevated baseline, as it may have contributed to accelerated maturation across certain vintages.
