Gordon & MacPhail
Scotland
Single Malt
Dark spice and strawberries abound this 15 year old from the Linkwood distillery.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
The nose is quite full with balanced oaked tannins and smoked ham. A touch of Fraise des Bois liqueur and notes of musty port. The palate is full and firm with notes of arak, dark toffee, vanilla spice and buttery oak. The finish is quite long and oaked with a touch of spice.

A Christmas present.Soft , a good finish, some age tasted in the dram. Excellent.
Lovely spiced finished makes this easy drinking dram just the thing.
This is a refreshing contrast to the now popular SHERRY BOMB styles. I have no great beef with the sherry bombs like A'bunadh, but it's nice to see a drier spicier take without losing the obvious sherry influence. More consistent than the sibling Mortlach bottling from G&M. Chocolate, cereal, strawberries and pepper. That's what you get and it's delicious. I just can't see any whisky fan not liking this.
Tried this at the Fiddich Side Inn, Craigellachie, during speyside whisky festival, probably my favorite dram that day.
A smashing wee dram for the price, my friends all loved it.
