The full story & FAQBackground · serving notes · questions
Gordon & MacPhail and Speymalt
Gordon & MacPhail is a family-owned whisky merchant and independent bottler founded in Elgin in 1895, owned by the Urquhart family, which also runs the Benromach and Cairn distilleries. Its Macallan-distilled whiskies are bottled under the Speymalt name, and each release is labelled with its own vintage and cask details.
The whisky
Distilled at Macallan in 1998, this whisky was matured in first-fill sherry casks, which give a deep, dried-fruit and chocolate character. Gordon & MacPhail's recent 1998 first-fill sherry hogshead Speymalt releases show figs, raisins, toffee and baking spice, with treacle and baked apple on the palate.
Serving
Pour neat into a nosing glass and give it time; a little water can lift the fruit. It is a natural partner for dark chocolate or a slice of fruit cake.
