Description

Founded in 1895, Gordon & MacPhail has been bottling single malt whiskies for 120 years and by the 1950s it held the largest range of bottled malt whiskies in the world. This family-run business has bottled one of the oldest single malt whiskies in the world - a Mortlach 1939 75 Year Old - as well as being a distiller itself after buying Benromach in 1993. They bottle whisky across several ranges, including the prestigious Private Collection. This particular release is a Tomintoul 1972, part of the Gordon & MacPhail Private Collection.

Delicately fruity, ripe melons and apricots, soft aromatic herbs and flowers, heather honey and maple syrup. Hints of tropical fruit and dried banana chips, butterscotch, manuka honey, allspice, and mint.
Palate
Heavy on oak and old herbal liqueurs, saps, cordials, and medicines, with some cinnamon/menthol mix. Green tea, notes of toffee apples, quince cheese, marzipan, dried grass, and a touch of toasted oak.
Finish
Long, spicy, but still tense and tart, with some kinds of resinous lemons. Nutty and spicy.
