Longmorn Gordon & MacPhail Single Malt Scotch Whisky 50 Year Old · 1964 Vintage

Colour

Dense amber-gold with coppery warmth and a touch of mahogany at the rim.

Nose

Elegant, time-warmed aroma of dried fig and orange zest rises from plush toffee, vanilla and almond paste. Rich sherry sweetness mingles with mahogany oak, cinnamon and clove, then unfurls hints of leather, cigar box and dark chocolate.

Palate

Silky, full-bodied on the palate, this 50-year-old Longmorn delivers a luxurious sherried sweetness with refined restraint. Dried fig and plum mingle with orange zest, raisin and cocoa, supported by espresso and toasted almond. Cinnamon and clove spice thread through the mid-palate, while velvety oak and a touch of leather extend into a long, graceful finish.

Finish

A satin, expansive finish that lingers with refined spice and warmed oak. Dried fig and raisin unfold into walnut, cocoa and a kiss of orange zest, while vanillin sweetness sails through a long, honeyed fade. Sherry-influenced richness coats the palate, tapering to a graceful, contemplative warmth that slowly dissolves.
