The Macallan Speymalt Single Malt Scotch Whisky 9 Year Old · 2004 Vintage
Out of 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 golden amber with warm copper highlights.
Nose
Rich sherry influence envelops the nose with dark fruit—raisins, figs and a touch of orange peel—woven with honeyed toffee, vanilla and a whisper of cocoa. Spices rise softly—cinnamon and nutmeg—against polished oak, delivering a poised, creamy sweetness and a warmly inviting depth.
Palate
Silky, fruit-forward arrival with orange peel, raisin and dark chocolate notes, a ribbon of toffee and vanilla. Subtle spice—nutmeg, cloves—drifts through polished oak and faint sherry sweetness, giving a creamy, persistent finish.
Finish
Long and luxurious, the finish carries warm sherry fruit, orange zest and dark chocolate, wrapped in velvety oak. Cinnamon and clove spice lingers, fading to a refined sweetness and a final whisper of toasted wood.
