01 Spirit
Since 1895 Gordon & MacPhail has fine-tuned its knowledge, matching spirit from over 100 Scottish distilleries to casks made to our specifications.
This understanding has been refined and handed down over generations of people working for the business. It has enabled Gordon & MacPhail to mature some of the finest and rarest single malt Scotch whiskies in the world.
02 Cask
Gordon & MacPhail has mastered the art of whisky maturation with knowledge and expertise handed down through generations.
The quality and type of wood is incredibly important in the creation of a high-quality single malt. Gordon & MacPhail sources bourbon barrels from Kentucky and works with bodegas in Spain to create sherry casks to our exact specifications.

03 Time
Pairing the right cask to the spirit is more art than science. Understanding how to match a cask to a particular spirit takes skill and experience. The final, all-important factor is ‘time’: knowing how long to wait before bottling a whisky.
