Gordon & MacPhail Private Collection The Recollection Series 49 year old Glen Mhor 1973, 47.2%
Price: ● Issue: Winter 2023 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
The nose is sumptuous, rich, and absorbing, with toffee apple, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, date, leather, dried vine fruit, polished antique wood, gingerbread, and oak char. It’s silky smooth on the palate, with chocolate orange, vanilla extract, prune, and berry compote, shifting into milk chocolate, espresso, raisins, and dried fruits, with a finish of leather, prune, musty chocolate, and clove. A stunning example of a closed distillery dram. (170 bottles)
