Caperdonich 36 Year Old 1982 - Private Collection (Gordon & MacPhail)
An impressively well-aged single malt from a lost distillery, this whisky was distilled at Caperdonich on 5 November 1982. It rested in a single refill bourbon barrel for nearly four decades, until it was bottled by Gordon & MacPhail in 2019, a whole 17 years after the distillery was closed. The cask yielded 114 bottles at 46.6% ABV, released as part of the Private Collection.
Tasting Note by The Producer
Nose
Soft and gentle aromas of citrus peel and traces of toffee combine with sweet hay and dried flower notes. Nuances of honeysuckle emerge, balanced by fresh highlights of newly-harvested mint.
Palate
Gentle flavours of liquorice root initially. Crisp red apple notes emerge; a drying oak undertone lingers before nutty notes surface. A generous sweetness remains.
Finish
Sweet flavours evolve into a refreshing element akin to newly-harvested hops. Mature oak endures on the finish.
