130 years of Gordon & MacPhail
£50pp
For 130 years, we have been entrusted with new-make spirit from more than 100 Scottish distilleries to mature in our casks, our way. This special tasting includes 130 years of whisky from our Discovery, Distillery Labels and Connoisseurs Choice ranges, highlighting little-known distilleries, and celebrating those that remain largely unseen in the single malt world.
Connoisseurs Choice
£75pp
Created in 1968 by whisky visionary, ‘Mr George’ Urquhart, the Connoisseurs Choice range features rare single cask and small batch expressions that are always non-chill filtered and natural colour. Discover the depth and breadth of whiskies available in the Connoisseurs Choice range, enjoying five whiskies selected from different cask types, bottling strengths and age statements.
Single Cask Selection
£100pp
Since 1895 Gordon & MacPhail has fine-tuned its knowledge by matching spirit from over 100 Scottish distilleries to casks made to our exact specifications. This understanding has been refined and handed down over four generations. It has enabled Gordon & MacPhail to mature some of the world’s finest and rarest single malt Scotch whiskies in the world. In the Single Cask Selection tasting, visitors discover some of the secrets in the art of whisky maturation while enjoying five beautifully complex drams from unique single cask bottlings.
Vintage and Rare
£175pp
Leaving a cask to reach its full potential, undeterred by demand of necessity, is a long held, unnegotiable Gordon & MacPhail mantra. We only release a whisky when a century of experience determines it is right to do so. In this tasting you will savour a selection of our most exclusive whiskies aged for a minimum of 20 years, each an exquisite chapter of Scotland’s liquid history.
Legends of Speyside
£250pp
We invite you to savour five greatly-aged whiskies from Strathisla, Glen Grant, Mortlach, Linkwood and Glenlivet distilleries; iconic Speyside distilleries that have been integral to the Gordon & MacPhail story for generations. This tasting of single malts distilled in the 1950’s and bottled in our historic Rare Vintage range gives you a unique opportunity to experience whiskies from a bygone era.
