Description

Connoisseurs Choice is one of the most easily recognised ranges from the independent bottler Gordon & MacPhail. This range was launched by George Urquhart - one of the first of four generations of the family to build Gordon & MacPhail - back in the 1960s; a period where most malts were used in blends so this was quite an unusual move for the company.

Nose
Cardboard, vanilla, flour and wet rocks plus a little café latte. Werther's. With water: pipe tobacco, molasses, vegetables, soy sauce, Barbour grease. Unusual.
Palate
burning! Is there peat now or is there not? Hard to say, such is this one's hotness. Cough, cough. With water: quite some peat indeed, the rest being so much nicer than on the nose. Creamy vanilla and spices, pepper and liquorice.
Finish
long, peppery, gingery, leathery.
