The Macallan Speymalt Single Malt Scotch Whisky 49 Year Old · 1967 Vintage
In stock
Gordon & MacPhail have been purveyors of fine goods across three centuries and, over many years, have built up and nurtured special relationships with local producers. Among these are several local whisky distilleries in the Speyside region from whom they purchase new-make spirit to be matured in their own oak casks.
However, there is only one distillery for which they reserve the title ‘Speymalt from Macallan Distillery’.
Established in 1824 and situated overlooking the fishing beats on the River Spey, the Macallan Distillery produces a wonderfully complex spirit, which they then carefully mature in quality oak casks ordered specifically for the ‘Speymalt from Macallan Distillery’ range.
Each bottling carries the vintage of distillation and the year of bottling, capturing an exceptionally mature single malt whisky.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber-gold with coppery highlights and a touch of mahogany at the edges, a warm, aged glow.
Nose
Opulent and aged, the nose unfolds with fig and prune, orange zest and a rich sherry depth. Layered beneath are dark chocolate, praline and toffee, mingling with polished oak, cedar and leather, hinting at decades of maturation and a refined, nutty-dried fruit sweetness.
Palate
Silky and full-bodied, the palate delivers refined sherried sweetness, with raisin, fig and orange zest interlaced by warm spice. Dark chocolate, espresso and toasted oak rise gracefully, lending velvety texture, subtle leather and nutmeg. The balance is elegant and persistent, finishing long with a measured cocoa-spice echo from the mature wood.
Finish
Silky, enduring finish with velvety oak and spice lingering on the palate. Orange zest, dried fruits and a touch of dark chocolate unfurl, slowly giving way to toasted almond and a whisper of leather, leaving a refined, warm glow that lingers long after the sip.
