Discovery Range – Aultmore 10 Years – Gordon & MacPhail 70 CL 43%
Single Malt Scotch Whisky
A 10-year-old expression from Atmore Distillery and while it stays true to the distillery’s style, there’s added intrigue given from the 10 year maturation in Bourbon.
Rich green apple and sweet vanilla custard on the nose, with a hint of lemon. More vanilla, apple and peach to taste are balanced by light hints of pepper and rich oak. Subtle grassy malt note on the finish.
For more than a century, Gordon & MacPhail has been entrusted with new make spirit from more than 100 Scottish distilleries to mature in their way, using casks made to their exacting specifications. A unique approach to independent bottlings.
Gordon & MacPhail was established in 1895 by James Gordon and John Alexander MacPhail. Today members of the third and fourth generations have continued to apply a century of experience to their whisky-making process.
The Discovery range was created to provide an introduction to single malt whiskeys from some of Scotland’s most revered distilleries – an ideal way to taste your way around the Scotch category…
Gordon & MacPhail are to the noble single malt what Lennon & McCartney are to pop music. For more than 100 years, they have insisted on jumping over the highest fence. The inherited sense of selecting the absolute best casks from a wide range of distilleries is practiced today as it was 100 years ago. Once the dish is selected, it is transported to G&M’s warehouse in Elgin. Here the cask is looked after and cared for along with thousands of other selected casks until that day in the future, be it five, ten or fifty years down the line, when the whiskey has reached its zenith. Only here are the precious drops bottled.
