Country: Scotland

Region: Speyside

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Gordon & MacPhail

ABV: 54.5%

Score: 94 Points

This 27-year-old Speyside single malt from Gordon & MacPhail’s Connoisseur’s Choice range has a fruity and floral nose with touches of honey, dried fruits, butterscotch, and vanilla. The taste balances black pepper spiciness with apple cider, honey, a hint of cinnamon, vanilla, and dried flowers. The finish is long and well-rounded with good spiciness and fruity character. Excellent! (January, 2024)
