About this bottle

Gordon & MacPhail, a company with 122 years of history, updated its entire range in April 2018. The Connoisseurs Choice line was the first to feature a new design. A whisky from the Speyside distillery Glen Elgin, which aged for 20 years in a first-fill sherry butt, is among the initial releases showcasing this updated look. This bottling is presented at cask strength.

Peppery, fruity, with a pleasant conclusion. The burn is noticeable early on.
