Strathisla 1970-2012 | Gordon & MacPhailSpeyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl 43% A luscious looking 1970 Strathisla from G&M's ever impressive ancient stocks of whisky. This one is a full on sherry monster packed with pristine notes of dark fruits, figs, balsamico, earth, wild mushrooms and candied fruits. An absolute belter of a dram and, once again with all these releases, incredible value considering the age and quality.

waxiness and coastal freshness

This Springbank is very much in that vein but beautifully so

A fab aged Linkwood full of spice

An old Haig's Dimple De Luxe from the 1970s

and we're guessing it might have been a fino sherry butt as the whisky is quite light

A magnificent and totally underrated dram

full bodied

Palate: Hints of toasted malt compliment orange blossom and stewed rhubarb

There are loads of great gems in this old CC series and this old Glenburgie 15yo distilled in 1968 is easily one of them

You just have to taste the bottlings to see how it shows

Comes in a beautifully minimalistic wooden presentation case with two branded goblets and a stopper

the whiskies made in the last few years of Rosebank's original lifetime have turned out to be among the distillery's finest
