Created in 1968 by whisky visionary, ‘Mr. George’ Urquhart, the Connoisseurs Choice range has featured more than 2,000 bottlings from almost 100 Scottish distilleries. Each Connoisseurs Choice whisky’s story is told through its label: cask type, bottling date, strength, vintage, and tasting note. Always non-chill-filtered, these rare single cask and small batch expressions have been created by Gordon & MacPhail’s unique expertise in matching spirit to oak casks, handed down through four generations of the same family.

Tasting Notes

Colour: Amber. Nose: Rich stewed raisin aromas complement black currant jam with mixed nuts. Milk chocolate comes to the fore alongside toasted hazelnuts and licorice.

Palate: Vanilla custard gives way to intense fruit cake notes with subtle cloves spice. Baked apple intertwines with orange oil and blueberries.

Finish: Medium-bodied with soft cocoa powder and dried fruits.

Serving Suggestions
First things first, be comfortable, relaxed and free from distractions. Pour a healthy amount (15-25ml) into a nosing glass (e.g., glencairn) and let it sit for a while. We recommend a minute of resting in the glass for every year in the cask. Otherwise, let it settle down for 5-10 minutes at least.

Help yourself to a 'warm up dram' in the meantime - something simple to open up the palate. When ready, start nosing the spirit, followed by sipping it (noting how it arrives on your palate and its development), and finally the finish. Take your time to get to know the spirit, noting its expression, character, depth, complexity and flavours. These can all change with adding drops of water so play around to find different sides of the spirit and identity a personal sweet spot for yourself!

But always remember, the best way to drink it is the way you like it!
