Gordon & MacPhail is probably the most important independent bottler in Scotland.
Gordon & MacPhail has vast stocks of barrels from almost all distilleries, the stored vintages date back to the 30s.
The most famous series by Gordon & MacPhail is the Connoisseurs Choice with over 40 different bottlings.
There is also a Cask Strength series and bottlings under the name Spirit of Scotland and Speymalt .
One thing all the bottlings have in common is the very high, excellent quality.


Glen Elgin - Private Collection
Built in 1900 in the Speyside, near the town of Elgin, a major center of the whiskey industry in Scotland.
Glen Elgin produces a pleasant, wonderfully soft malt.
It took a very long time until the small distillery with a vintage bottling was also to get here with us, the mass of production is still going to Japan, where he finds rapid sales.
