Gordon & MacPhail Milton 1949 72 Year Old 'Private Collection'

Product description

Matured in cask 383, a first-fill sherry puncheon, and bottled at 48.6% ABV. Outturn of 180 bottles.

Matured in a cask filled especially for G&M, the 72-Year-Old Gordon & MacPhail 1949 from Milton Distillery is exceptionally rare, with only 180 bottles available worldwide. The title pays homage to the distillery’s original name given by founder George Taylor, and it represents one of very few releases ever to carry the Milton name.

Sherry influences intertwine with sweet vanilla pod and seville orange. stewed forest fruit aromas give way to vibrant festive spice and soft lemon zest. Flavours of butterscotch give way to bright citrus and nutmeg. baked apple notes come to the fore alongside poached pear and honeycomb. A long finish with lingering apple, dark toffee and subtle smoke.
