Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 47.9%
Gordon & MacPhail's ancient stocks of long-lost single malt whiskies are legendary, and in many cases - perhaps even most- they have older casks than those held by the distillery owners themselves.
That's why it's a good idea to pay close attention when G&M get their fancy packaging out, because it usually means just one thing - another earth-shattering long-aged dram is about to drop.
So it proves, with this 1975 Convalmore bottled in 2020 for Gordon & MacPhail's Private Collection. Convalmore was shuttered in 1985, and the oldest official bottling we know of was a very well-received 36-year-old Convalmore 1977 vintage bottled for Diageo's Special Releases back in 2013.
Gordon & MacPhail have prior form for Convalmore 1975, with a couple of excellent Rare Old editions appearing in 2008 and 2013. This Private Collection 45-year-old Convalmore 1975 comes from a single refill American hogshead bottled at its natural cask strength of 47.9%, and will no doubt raise the bar even further.
