Rare Old Gordon & MacPhail

The ‘Rare Old’ series by Gordon & MacPhail is a wonderful range of single malts, selected from some of Scotland’s greatest distilleries.

These special whiskies are from another era, malts that were laid down decades ago from distilleries that are now, sadly either demolished or have been mothballed (silent distilleries).

Below we have several of the malts released under this label that recently arrived back in stock. Please note that we have very limited availability…
