Glen Mhor (silent) Gordon & MacPhail Single Malt Scotch Whisky 30 Year Old · 1980 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with a copper-gold glow and a hint of mahogany at the edge, shimmering with warm, sunlit richness.

Nose

Sherry-soaked fruit, prune, fig and raisin mingle with orange peel and a touch of cherry. Rich almond and hazelnut drift through toffee, treacle and vanilla, while oak, leather and a hint of tobacco provide depth. Spices—cinnamon and clove—lift the finish, leaving a polished, darkly elegant Highland nose.

Palate

Silky, sherried and richly fruity; fig, date and raisin mingle with orange zest and cocoa. Toasted almond and warming spice—cinnamon and clove—spark a refined oak backbone. Medium-full, creamy mouthfeel leads to a long, warming finish of dried fruits, cocoa and a hint of tobacco.

Finish

An opulent, lingering finish of sherry warmth, where dark fig and plum fade into orange zest, toasted almond, and cocoa. Spice drifts through oak with a final whisper of leather, leaving a polished sweetness and a subtle burnt-sugar glow.
