Whiskies bottled from the new 'Private Collection' have been personally selected by members of the Urquhart family that has owned Gordon & MacPhail for four generations. Each is a unique and exquisite chapter in Scotland's history of whisky.

"When a whisky from our Private Collection leaves it's spiritual home in Elgin, it's like saying farewell to a family friend."

Stephen Rankin, Director of Prestige - Member of the Fourth Generation of the Urquhart family

Tasting Notes by Gordon & MacPhail:

Aroma: Rich aromas of sun ripened red apple with delicate sweet spice. Notes of strawberry liquorice with tangy citrus elements give way to subtle smoked kipper notes.

Taste: Intense; mouth-warming crushed black pepper is followed by flavours of baked apples. Traces of fresh orange entwine with mature oak. A slight herbal edge develops.

Finish: Long and sweet on the finish with wisps of peat smoke.
