Description
Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 75cl / 40%
A 50-year-old Glenlivet 1940 bottled in a crystal decanter by Gordon & MacPhail around 1990. This was one of the earliest of the company’s legendary Book of Kells bottlings featuring labels illustrated in the style of the famous Celtic calligraphy masterpiece.
This Gordon & MacPhail Book of Kells 50-year-old Glenlivet was distilled in 1940, when most of Scotland’s distilleries were in mothballs. Wartime malts were famously peaty due to coal shortages and many matured into total masterpieces as a result. This glorious 50-year-old Gordon & MacPhail Glenlivet 1940 crystal decanter is an historic and extinct style of whisky that has to be tasted to be believed.
