Glen Grant 1950 Gordon and MacPhail 65 Year Old

Founded in 1895, Gordon & MacPhail has been bottling single malt whiskies for 120 years and by the 1950’s it held the largest range of bottled malt whiskies in the world. Many of them have become legends. Over the last years the company was proud to present to the public some of the world’s oldest whiskies – way above 60 year old.
