Out of stock
The 'Rare Old' range captured lost gems from a bygone era of Single Malt Scotch Whisky production. This Whisky has been silently maturing, slowly finding it's own unique voice, and today, has come to represent some of the finest ever expressions distilled in Scotland.
A snapshot in time, each release from the 'Rare Old' range serves as a reminder of Scotland’s rich distilling heritage; a bygone era bottled.
A gem of a bottling from Gordon and Macphail is this very very rare 40 year old from the now silent and much invested distillery Glenlochy. Supplied in a high quality wooden box with brass clasp.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery bronze hues and hints of mahogany, a warm, honeyed glow shimmering like aged oak.
Nose
Opulent sherry whispers from time-worn oak, with raisin, fig and dark cherry and a kiss of orange zest. Rich cocoa, toffee and almond mingle with cinnamon and clove, unfolding slowly. An antique warmth and refined restraint hint at decades of maturation and Glenlochy’s silent heritage.
Palate
Silky and opulent, the palate unfolds with fig and raisin sweetness, toasted almond and dark chocolate. Sherry-inspired depth glides through with warm cinnamon and clove, while polished oak lends refined tannins. A long, elegant finish of dried fruit, espresso and leather.
Finish
Long, elegant finish with cacao, dried fig and prune slowly dissolving into orange zest and soft spice. Sherry-tinged oak lingers, delivering a velvety sweetness that folds into polished tannins, leaving a warm, refined dryness and a final whisper of leather.
