Undaunted Spirit

Referred to by whisky writer Charlie MacLean as ‘the father of single malt’, George Urquhart is widely acknowledged to be one of our industry’s true pioneers. In 1968, when the vast majority of spirit went to make blended whisky, George created the Connoisseurs Choice to provide little-known distilleries a platform to have their whisky enjoyed in its simplest form, as a single malt.>

A master of maturation, Mr George was instrumental to the growth and international success of Scotch whisky, particularly single malts.
