Glenlivet Gordon & MacPhail Single Cask #336 Whisky 85 Year Old · 1940 Vintage
Out of stock
Glenlivet Gordon & MacPhail Single Cask #336 1940 is an extraordinary 85-year-old single malt Scotch whisky — one of the oldest ever bottled. Distilled at The Glenlivet in 1940 and filled into American oak sherry cask number 336 by John Urquhart, this exceptional whisky has spent over eight decades maturing under the careful stewardship of Gordon & MacPhail.
Only 125 decanters of this historic release were produced, making it an incredibly rare and significant collector’s item. Bottled at natural strength of 43.7% ABV, this whisky represents the pinnacle of long-term maturation and independent bottling expertise.
A true piece of whisky history, this 85-year-old expression offers a rare opportunity to experience the depth and complexity that only time — and exceptional cask management — can create.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with mahogany-red depth and copper-gold highlights, a warm, regal glow evoking decades of sherry-cask maturation.
Nose
Multi-layered nose of dried fig and date, deepened by dark chocolate and antique oak. A refined kiss of sweet sherry, with subtle spice and a whisper of floral lift, hinting at eight decades of maturation.
Palate
Remarkably smooth and elegant for its age, this 85-year-old offers dried fig and date with toasted oak, gentle spice, dark chocolate, and a whisper of rancio. The texture is silky and refined, balancing sweetness with oak-derived warmth, finishing long and poised as fruit and wood linger in harmony.
Finish
Extremely long and graceful, with lingering notes of dried fruit, antique oak, sweet spice, and a subtle sherry sweetness that fades slowly.
