Gordon & MacPhail Private Collection 1979 (Distilled at Glenlivet; Cask No. 19237), 54%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2020 ● Reviewer: Gavin Smith ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
The nose yields tangerines, linseed, marzipan, ginger, and honey, followed by a mild menthol note. Rounded and chewy on the palate, with lively orchard fruit flavors, turning to slightly bitter Seville orange and light chile. Licorice root and tannins develop in the very long, citric finish. (62 bottles; U.S. exclusive)
