Speyburn 1977-2021 | 44 Year Old Gordon & MacPhail Private Collection 70cl / 59.2%
A 44-year-old Speyburn 1977 bottled by Gordon & MacPhail in 2021 for their Private Collection, the pinnacle of G&M’s prestige bottlings.
This 1977 Speyburn 44-year-old was bottled from a single refill sherry butt Cask 6045101, yielding 414 bottles at a remarkable natural cask strength of 59.2%—an incredible strength considering its great age. When Gordon & MacPhail get their fancy packaging out, it means one thing-that this is likely going to be among the greatest ever bottlings from the overlooked Speyburn distillery.
Tasting Notes
Subtle sherry aromas intertwine with walnut and cocoa powder. Ginger spice gives way to dried tobacco.
Sweet honey flavors complement Medjool dates and demerara sugar. Seville orange peel comes to the fore alongside autumnal spices.
