Island Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 50.2%
Gordon & MacPhail's Connoisseurs Choice Cask Strength are never better than when they dig up a lovely old cask from an unheralded distillery - nine times out of ten they're better whisky than the official bottlings, and they're always great value too.
They've come up trumps again with this lovely old Jura - it's a refill hogshead of Jura 1992, bottled as a 28-year-old in 2021. Cask 1883 yielded 173 bottles at 50.2% - in other words, this should be absolutely tremendous stuff.
