Product description
Gordon & MacPhail was founded in 1895 and is now perhaps the most recognisable independent whisky company.
It has thousands of barrels of distillates in its warehouses and, as early as the 1950s, under agreements signed with distilleries, it distributed their single malts. Some of them, including Glen Grant, still form the "Distillery Labels" series and are released with unique labels designated for a specific brand. Glen Grant 1966 hit the market in 2006 after four decades of maturation in barrels made of American and European oak.
