Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 46%
An outstanding Convalmore distilled in 1975 and bottled 40 years later in 2015 by Gordon & MacPhail for their Rare Old series.
There is hardly any Convalmore left now - just a handful of bottlings in the last decade and it's quite possible that G&M have more than Diageo. Someday soon the last Convalmore will be gone, which is such a shame as it is superb, almost unique whisky.
This almost 40-year-old Convalmore from G&M is yet another quiet masterpiece in the fabulous, historically important Rare Old series. Bottled from a refill sherry hogshead, which yielded 299 bottles at a punchy 46%.
Waxy, fruity and oily, this Convalmore 1975 is another elegant reminder of the lost Highland/Speyside style, bursting with character and complexity. A real gem of a dram from a distillery that never got the credit it deserved in its lifetime and has sadly remained in obscurity in the decades since its untimely demise.

Lightweight, thin on flavour and not much in the way of a finish. Certainly not worth paying the “Distillers Reserve” premium over their standard single malt.
Have not opened it yet - being chased for a review
This shop has been chasing me for a review about this product several times now but I still haven’t opened it yet. I cannot say anything about it. Not everyone buys a whisky and opens it within a few weeks of arrival. Make of this what you want.
