NameMilton (Strathisla) 72 Year Old 1949 Private Collection (Gordon & Macphail)
A 1949 Milton single malt from independent bottler Gordon & MacPhail has been bottled as part of their Private Collection after spending 72 years maturing in a single first-fill sherry puncheon. The Milton Distillery name has never been used to a single malt from Gordon & MacPhail before this one. The aroma is accompanied by notes of butterscotch, orange, nutmeg, baked apple, poached pear, honey, toffee, and wisps of gentle smoke, while the tongue features flavors of baked apple, poached pear, honey, toffee, and stewed blackberries.

About The Brand: Strathisla
The Scottish Highlands' Strathisla Distillery is the region's oldest distillery still in operation. George Taylor and Alexander Milne established it as the Milltown Distillery in 1786 as a substitute for the declining flax dressing business. The Earl of Seafield granted them a lease on the property. William Longmore, subsequently known as William Longmore Ltd., controlled the distillery by 1830. The distillery was severely damaged by fire in 1879, but it was rebuilt with a bottling facility. It was purchased by dishonest businessman Jay Pomeroy in 1940, and James Barclay of Chivas Bros. afterwards bought it. The Speyside Cooperage, a historic distillery (Dallas Dhu, now a museum), and seven active Speyside distilleries are all part of Scotland's Malt Whisky Trail. Visitors may take a tour of the 'traditional storehouse where the single malts that make up the premium and super premium blends are housed [and] give a rich, nutty, balanced whiskey,' according to a BBC report.
