Distilled in 1975 and bottled in 2020 at 44% ABV, this 45-year-old whisky was drawn from a sherry cask (#34200) for Gordon & MacPhail’s Private Collection and yielded 93 bottles.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Dark amber with copper-gold highlights and a mahogany edge.
Nose
Smooth dark treacle and brown sugar mingle with vanilla pod. Cinnamon and ginger rise through the aroma, revealing dried fig.

Toasted almond notes lead, pairing with fruit and nut milk chocolate. Smooth, succulent stewed fruit—ripe plum and damson—unfolds with a gentle warmth of spice and toasted oak lingering on the palate.
Finish
A long, slightly oily finish, with lingering spice and a pronounced brazil nut note that softly fades.
