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. Perhaps due to the popularity surrounding blend ...' This Rosebank 1991 Connoisseurs Choice (2009) is a rare and highly collectible Lowland single malt Scotch whisky from the iconic closed Rosebank Distillery, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail for their renowned Connoisseurs Choice series. Distilled in 1991 and matured in a combination of refill sherry and American oak casks, this elegant expression was bottled in March 2009, showcasing the delicate balance between cask influence and Rosebank's signature distillery character.
