Glen Mhor (silent) Gordon & MacPhail Single Malt Scotch Whisky 21 Year Old · 1979 Vintage

Colour

Deep burnished amber with copper-gold highlights and a whisper of mahogany.

Nose

Rich, layered nose of dried fruits—sultanas, fig and raisin—lifted by orange zest and a touch of toffee. Sherry sweetness glides with dark oak, walnut oil, and a whisper of leather. Spices emerge—cinnamon and clove—alongside subtle cocoa and espresso notes, yielding a warm, malt-driven aroma of quiet refinement.

Palate

Silky and refined, the palate opens with sherry-tinged sweetness—dried apricot, fig and raisin—lifted by orange zest, toasted almond and a hint of milk chocolate. Gentle spice and fine oak weave through, keeping the texture elegant at 40%. Finishes long and nutty, with a cocoa-dark echo that lingers.

Finish

Silky and refined, the finish lingers with sherried warmth, unfolding dried fruit, almond sweetness and cocoa. Oak spice threads through a soft, lingering fade, with a final whisper of orange zest and a poised, elegant tail.
