Mosstowie 1979 – Gordon And Macphail 25Th Anniversary
$3,100.00
Distilled at Miltonduff Distillery, Mosstowie was one of only a handful of spirits to be made using a Lomond still. Mainly used in blended whisky, the Lomond stills were removed in 1981, resulting in the brand no longer being produced after that date. This release is from the last cask of Mosstowie to have matured in Gordon & MacPhail’s famous warehouse. Aroma: Fragrant vanilla pod and butterscotch aromas lead to candied peel and hedgerow blossom. Leather and stewed apple notes come to the fore alongside blackcurrant leaves. Taste: Flavours of black pepper complement spiced grapefruit and subtle sherry influences. Dark chocolate undertones develop accompanied by tart raspberries and strawberry liquorice. Finish: Long and medium-bodied with a hint of fresh mint leaves on the finish.
