Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 51%
A single cask 1987 Balmenach 32-year-old bottled in 2020 without colouring or chill filtration by Gordon & MacPhail for their Connoisseur's Choice Cask Strength range, one of a string of long-aged drams celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Gordon & MacPhail's Connoisseurs Choice range.
This 32-year-old Balmenach 1987 matured in a refill sherry hogshead that yielded just 208 bottles at its natural cask strength of 51%. Balmenach has long been a Speyside workhorse for owners Inver House (and previous stewards United Distillers) and official bottlings are almost non-existent, so these indie bottlings are the best way to taste the distillery's gutsy, characterful spirit.

Richly sherried and fruit driven and all the better for knowing that all proceeds will go the very worthwhile cause of Scotland's Charity Air Ambulance.
I bought this as a present then did the tour with my brother at Lindores Abbey distillery in Newburgh Fife.The bottle i bought from Whisky-online was cheaper than at Lindores ,very happy again and a very quick delivery.
