Gordon & MacPhail Recollection Series No. 3 Rosebank 1991, 51.2%

Price: 3000 Issue: Spring 2025 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Single Malt Scotch

It’s so floral it makes your head spin, with aromas of guava, lime zest, honey throat lozenges, and vanilla frosting. Astonishingly fruity, there’s sweet tropical fruits on the tongue, with mango, passion fruit, pear, and pepper, then clementine peel, grilled pineapple, grapefruit, and late vanilla fudge notes. Bottled at 32 years old from a first-fill bourbon barrel, it ends with a long finish of vanilla and lemon peel. (Release date: 2/25; 141 bottles worldwide)
