SECRET SPEYSIDE - MACPHAIL'S - SINGLE MALT - IB - GORDON & MACPHAIL (G&M) "CENTENARY 1895-1995" BLUE PORCELAIN BOTTLE

To celebrate their 100th anniversary (1895–1995), Gordon & MacPhail commissioned a small series of ultra-aged, premium decanters. Because it is labeled as "MacPhail's" rather than naming a specific distillery, this falls under their proprietary, ultra-premium brand banner. It highly attributed to Macallan or Glenrothes.

It gives heavy notes of antique polished oak, rancio, dark Oloroso sherry, rich espresso beans, leather bookbinding, and stewed black cherries. It fades gracefully into a dry, complex mix of European oak tannins, warming winter spices (clove and nutmeg), and a faint hint of old tobacco pipe smoke.
