Glen Moray Speyside single malt Scotch whisky is entering its second year as the Official Whisky of the ISPS Handa Senior Open, continuing its celebration of the shared heritage, pursuit of excellence and global appeal of whisky and golf.

The Elgin-based distillery will be bringing its whisky bar back to the event’s Championship Village, serving up a selection of award-winning drams and cocktails for the 35,000 spectators expected at the iconic Sunningdale Golf Club in Berkshire for this year’s event (24th – 27th July).

Glen Moray signed a three-year partnership with the prestigious event – Europe’s only senior major – in 2024.

This summer they will repeat the success of the partnership’s first year, bringing a taste of Glen Moray’s famously smooth and fruity Speyside single malt whisky – and some great Scottish hospitality – to golf fans at Sunningdale, as 144 golfing legends take to the fairways with their eye on the Senior Open trophy.

Proceedings over the four-day event will include:

  • An extended menu of single malts, including drams from Glen Moray’s Explorer, Heritage, Xperience and Warehouse 1 ranges;
  • The launch of a refreshing new highball menu, featuring three recipes that explore the different flavours and characteristics of Glen Moray’s whiskies;
  • A Sunningdale exclusive in the shape of Glen Moray Forbidden Fruit, giving spectators a preview of the third edition of the distillery’s Xperience Series, before it lands on shelves in the UK later this year;
  • Daily tastings and masterclasses with Global Brand Ambassador Iain Allan, inviting guests to sample and learn more about Speyside, Scotch whisky and the secrets of Glen Moray Distillery;
  • A 5pm daily Championship cocktail hour, serving up specially commissioned Glen Moray ‘Oak Fashioneds’ in honour of Sunningdale’s famous oak tree;
  • Limited edition branded hip flasks on sale in the Glen Moray shop, plus a personalised branded leather bottle tag which is complimentary with select purchases;
  • The new Glen Moray Chipping Challenge – the ultimate ‘golf meets whisky’ skill test at Sunningdale’s 13th hole, where avid amateurs can attempt to chip balls into three barrels from the distillery.

Iain Allan and Rorrie Brown

Iain Allan has also been on a quest to hear stories from some of the people behind the scenes of the golf world, whose skill, passion and dedication are a match for the distillery team in Elgin.

The result is the first of a new Glen Moray film series, ‘A Classic Round with…’ which sees Iain chat all things golf and whisky with Sunningdale’s Rorrie Brown: a lifelong caddie who shares stories of his dedication to the game, the players and getting it right in the big moments.

Crafted in the historic town of Elgin since 1897 and now one of the UK’s top selling single malt whiskies, Glen Moray is also investing in a busy programme of marketing to bring its ‘Classic Round’ golf campaign to consumers, with activity in UK supermarkets, travel retail and across PR and social media throughout the summer.

Speaking ahead of the Championship, Iain Allan said: ‘Our first year of partnership with the Senior Open exceeded all expectations and our bar was a very popular addition to the event experience for golf fans. So we’re thrilled to be back for another round of drams, cocktails and great whisky conversations at Sunningdale this year. The common threads whisky shares with golf – heritage, an appreciation of quality and celebrating good times with friends – really come together throughout this event. We’re very proud to be at the heart of those moments, and to have so many new drams and experiences to share with people as they enjoy some world class golf.’ 

Edward Kitson, Championship Director at the European Tour Group, added: ‘Partners such as Glen Moray play such an important part in the success of our tournaments and we are delighted that they are returning as the Official Whiskey of the ISPS HANDA Senior Open for this year and next. We are excited for our guests and spectators to sample the range of activities planned by Glen Moray during the week at Sunningdale, alongside the worldclass golf on show from some of the game’s biggest names.’

The ISPS Handa Senior Open is jointly owned by the European Tour Group and The R&A and is staged each July at one of the UK’s most iconic golf courses.

Inclusive and inviting, Glen Moray is perfect for enjoying on its own and in cocktails, by whisky aficionados and new whisky fans alike. 

About the ISPS HANDA Senior Open

The ISPS HANDA Senior Open will take place at Sunningdale for the fourth time as the iconic Berkshire venue hosts Europe’s only Senior Major Championship from July 24-27, 2025.

Sunningdale previously hosted the Championship in 2009, 2015 and 2021, with Loren Roberts, Marco Dawson and Stephen Dodd winning the Senior Open trophy on those occasions.

The 2024 Senior Open saw K.J. Choi make history as the first South Korean to win a men’s Senior Major Championship, finishing two strokes ahead of Australia’s Richard Green.

Bernhard Langer became the first golfer in history to win The Senior Open four times with his victory in 2019 at Royal Lytham & St Annes – moving ahead of Gary Player and Tom Watson with whom he previously shared three wins. The German also broke his own record of Senior Major Championship victories – securing his 11th at Royal Lytham & St Annes and since adding a 12th at the 2023 U.S. Senior Open.

The Senior Open was introduced in 1987 at Turnberry in Ayrshire when Neil Coles, the former Chairman of the Board of Directors of the European Tour group, won the inaugural title. This led, two years later, to the formal inception of what is now the Legends Tour. It has since been held at some of the United Kingdom’s most historic and renowned venues, including the Old Course at St Andrews, Royal County Down, Carnoustie, Royal Birkdale, Royal Portrush and Royal Lytham & St Annes.

DOUGLAS LAING LAUNCHES LIMITED EDITION EPICUREAN LOWLAND MALT SCOTCH WHISKY:

The Epicurean Three Wood Finish: A Masterclass in Versatility

Douglas Laing & Co. proudly unveils The Epicurean Three Wood Finish, a limited-edition celebration of cask craft and Lowland spirit. Bottled at a natural cask strength of 54.1% and offered in a run of just 1,920 bottles, this Small Batch release reaffirms The Epicurean’s status as the Master of Versatility.

In this exceptional bottling, three distinct wood types unite to create a Whisky of remarkable depth and character:

  • Virgin Oak introduces bold spice and toasted richness.
  • Bourbon casks add smooth layers of vanilla and honey’d sweetness.
  • Sherry casks impart a luxurious fruitiness and mellow warmth.

Together, these casks create a harmonious Lowland Malt that is as complex as it is compelling.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: Bright citrus, vanilla cream and toasted oak, with honey’d sweetness and hints of dried fruit and nutty spice.
  • Palate: Silky and layered with vanilla, baking spice, baked apple and golden syrup. Rich Sherry fruit adds depth and warmth.
  • Finish: Long, smooth and gently spiced with lingering notes of toffee, dark fruits and a soft oak dryness.

Presented with a premium foiled label, this non-coloured, and non-chill-filtered release speaks to The Epicurean’s commitment to authenticity and quality.

The Epicurean Three Wood Finish is a spirited showcase of how wood defines Whisky – and how versatility defines The Epicurean. 

Chloe Wood, Brand Manager commented:

“Our belief is that flavour is shaped throughout the Whisky-making journey, but it is in maturation where it truly comes to life. The Epicurean Three Wood Finish is a testament to this, with layers of richness, spice, and sweetness intertwining to create a wonderfully versatile Lowland Malt. This limited-edition release showcases the art of wood and Whisky in perfect harmony, reinforcing The Epicurean’s reputation as the Master of Versatility.”

The Epicurean Three Wood Finish is available in select markets around the world, retailing for £65.00 / €77.00.

Two New Barrel Picks From “The American Equivalent of Kavalan” – American Whiskey News

The Pinnacle of American Single Malt
Balcones Unleashed:
Cask Strength Single Malt Icons, Exclusive to K&L

“Balcones has long stood among the finest craft distillers in the U.S….”
— David Othenin-Girard, K&L Spirits Buyer

Balcones has redefined what American single malt can be. These two K&L-exclusive barrels—one finished in Madeira, the other aged full-term in Oloroso—are among the most compelling cask strength malts we’ve ever offered. Towering in structure, wildly expressive, and utterly singular, they showcase the kind of power and complexity that puts Balcones in a class of its own. If you think you know American whisky, these will rewrite the script.

Balcones “Madeira Barrel” K&L Exclusive Cask Strength Single Barrel #17122 Texas Single Malt Whisky (750ml) ($89.99)

David Othenin-Girard | K&L Spirits Buyer

Balcones has long stood among the finest craft distillers in the U.S., but in recent years, we’ve seen a clear shift in their focus toward single malt. From my perspective, that’s a wise move—because it’s increasingly evident that the most exciting whisky potential in this part of the world doesn’t come from corn-based spirits. Very little of the truly great whiskey emerging from Texas is bourbon, and frankly, few producers anywhere can match the intensity and complexity that Balcones delivers in their cask-strength single barrels.

While the comparison may seem surprising given their wildly different styles, these cask-strength single malts are starting to resemble the American equivalent of Kavalan—an ace in the hole that makes neighboring single malts feel tame by comparison. These whiskies aren’t for fans of delicate Highland malt—at least not straight out of the bottle. Instead, they’re for those who crave raw power and presence in the glass.

This barrel is no exception, though it does show a level of maturity and polish that the Oloroso barrel lacks. Let’s dive in. A gorgeous auburn hue (1.5). This one loves air. The nose explodes with molasses cookies, fig jam, shoe polish, aged leather, grape syrup, plum sauce, candied strawberries, and a deep woodsy undertone. I’ll admit I’m eating my words a bit here—there’s a strong resemblance to very old sherried malts, with tropical fruit, savory leather, and a coconut-like maturity, especially after the whisky has had an hour or more to open up. Blind, you’d never guess the age. For Waco, this is quite old.

The palate expands the experience with exotic spice—garam masala, turmeric, clove—layered over dense dried fruits. The finish continues this interplay of sweet and savory, with oak tannins perfectly woven into the whole. Some may be drawn more to the Oloroso barrel, but honestly, this is such a unique cask that you’d do well to try them side by side. I couldn’t choose between them—and I doubt you’ll be able to either.

K&L Notes: This exceptional barrel from the famous Waco distiller is truly one of a kind. Distilled on November 27th, 2017 from 100% Golden Promise barley on Balcones’ beautiful custom-built pot stills. It was filled into 59-gallon new charred American oak the very next day and matured there for over five years until May 25th of 2023 when the liquid was transferred over to a Madeira cask. (We are not allowed to disclose where the cask was sourced from.) With a total finished time of 14 months in the Madeira cask, it was disgorged on August 3rd, 2024, and bottled at its cask-strength proof of 130.5 for a total maturation of 6 years 8 months, or 80 months. This massively complex and unique offering is one of the most powerful and complex American single malts we’ve ever tasted. Nothing on the market today compares to the massive whiskies coming out of these Waco warehouses.

Balcones “Oloroso Sherry Hogshead” K&L Exclusive Cask Strength Single Barrel #12720 Texas Single Malt Whisky (750ml) ($89.99)

David Othenin-Girard | K&L Spirits Buyer

This absolute monster of a barrel may be the most intense and complex American Single Malt we’ve ever bottled. The wonderful Balcones Distillery is capable of a great deal, but where they truly shine is in this style of powerfully extractive, deeply complex, cask-strength whisky. For me, this is perhaps the closest the States has come to producing a Kavalan-style malt—albeit shaped by very different aging conditions.

Let’s give it a go. It pours thick—you can see it flow slowly. The color is dark as night, like brown sherry. The nose is deep and commanding, with massive aromas of cooked stone fruit, dark nutty chocolate, roasted espresso, and aged wood. It’s dense, chewy, and layered.

On the palate, it’s rich and mouth-coating. There’s immense power here—nearly tannic in structure—but it never veers off course. Waves of dark fruit, nougat, rancio, teak, clove, and hard strawberry candies all roll across the tongue. An absolutely exhilarating—and jaw-dropping—experience.

K&L Notes: This exceptional barrel of Single Malt from the famed distillery in Waco, Texas was distilled from 100% Golden Promise barley on March 3rd, 2020. Initial Entry Proof was 124.9 and filled into a recently dumped Oloroso sherry cask, the source of which is embargoed. Wholly aged for over 4 years in this ultra high quality active sherry hogshead in the hot and dry Waco weather and dumped on August, 3rd, 2024. It was bottled without chillfiltration, coloring or additions whatsoever at a full cask strength of 67.5% or 135 proof. Few whiskies on the market today will match this outrageous barrel for power and complexity. An absolute bruiser, which will serious trump any other American whisky (or internationally distilled single malt) by miles. Expect dense and rich sweet nutty fruit with a thick texture and rich juicy finish.

North British 1995 29 Year Old, Finn Thomson Cask #47390 at Aberdeen Whisky Shop – Scotch Whisky News


North British 1995 29 Year Old, Finn Thomson Cask #47390

£129.00

The story behind selecting this North British single cask release perfectly showcases the vital role independent bottlers have in bringing the best casks of whisky to the public.

In November 2024 Finn Thomson got a message from the master blender of a highly respected whisky company who had discovered a selection of North British casks that were ‘too good’ to be lost in the blend he was creating. These were heavily sherried casks that would have altered the consistency of their house blend which required an ex-bourbon cask profile.

After attending one of Finn Thomson’s tasting where he was singing the praises of North British Distillery, he invited Finn Thomson in to taste 8 cask samples of these sherried beauties. After nosing and sipping each one carefully, he selected 4 for adding to their family cask portfolio.

At 29 years old, this particular cask was the oldest of the bunch. A sherry butt, its slow maturation over the decades has created a whisky bursting with milk chocolate, caramel and dried fruits and is now at the sweet spot for bottling. Once destined to be in a blend, Finn Thomson is delighted to be able to release this cask as an example of how good well aged, sherried single grain whiskies can be.

GORDON & MACPHAIL INTRODUCES THE WORLD’S OLDEST SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY ~ GORDON & MACPHAIL 85 YEARS OLD FROM GLENLIVET DISTILLERY PRESENTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH JEANNE GANG – Scotch Whisky News

GORDON & MACPHAIL INTRODUCES
THE WORLD’S OLDEST SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

GORDON & MACPHAIL 85 YEARS OLD FROM GLENLIVET DISTILLERY
PRESENTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH JEANNE GANG

ELGIN, SCOTLAND, 22 July 2025: Whisky specialist Gordon & MacPhail is set to release the world’s oldest single malt Scotch whisky this October – an 85-Years-Old from Glenlivet Distillery – in partnership with American architect and designer, Jeanne Gang.

On 3rd February 1940 in a quiet corner of the north-east of Scotland, George Urquhart and his father, John, had the extraordinary foresight and vision to lay down spirit from Glenlivet Distillery in a Gordon & MacPhail American oak cask to be enjoyed after his lifetime by future generations.

George Urquhart, or ‘Mr George’ as he was fondly known by those who knew him best, knew he would never taste it. Only when the whisky was deemed ready would it be shared. Leaning on the family’s unique skills and experience, the time for Cask 336 came to be 85 years – longer than any other single malt Scotch whisky in history.

On 5th February 2025, the decision was taken to finally empty the cask. A total of 125 decanters of the 85 years old whisky were bottled in line with Gordon & MacPhail’s family expertise to produce liquid of the highest quality.

“This whisky is truly exceptional due to its remarkable history and unique maturation process. The influence of the cask, combined with the rarity and scarcity of the liquid, creates a whisky with a strength of 43.7% ABV that is not only extraordinary in its taste but also a living piece of history,” explains Stephen Rankin Director of Prestige at Gordon & MacPhail, and member of the fourth generation of the family that owns the company.

For 130 years, Gordon & MacPhail has been driven by a simple mission: to create single malt Scotch whisky of exceptional quality. Through four generations of family ownership, the company has matched its own casks with spirit from over 100 Scottish distilleries. It is this unique experience of cask curation that allows Gordon & MacPhail to consistently deliver a range of quality whiskies, nurtured from cask to bottle, found nowhere else in the world.

Timing is everything. Gordon & MacPhail will only release a whisky when over a century of experience determines it is appropriate to do so. Leaving each cask to mature, undeterred by commercial necessity, is a long-held, unnegotiable mantra, a fitting way to honour the integrity of each release. As a result, Gordon & MacPhail’s whiskies are often the oldest expression ever to be released from a particular distillery.

To celebrate John and George Urquhart’s vision, one embraced by generations of the family that owns the business, Gordon & MacPhail has collaborated with internationally acclaimed American architect Jeanne
Gang, to create a unique decanter to house the world’s most precious whisky to date. The product design – themed around ‘Artistry in Oak’ – will be revealed later this year. Known for a distinctive design approach that expands beyond architecture’s conventional boundaries, Gang was a natural choice as a creative partner, sharing the company’s commitment to leave a legacy for future generations.

“I was excited to learn about everything involved in whisky’s creation. Each careful step lends something to a whisky’s unique flavor. Then, there are years of protecting the casks so they can age. In architecture, these elements of materiality and time also play a critical role in the design process. Both are about creating something enduring, so this is what I found inspiring about this opportunity to design a decanter for Gordon & MacPhail’s 85-year-old single malt whisky” expresses Gang.

Jeanne Gang’s stunning decanter will be revealed in October 2025, with decanter #1 auctioned by Christie’s New York in November 2025. To continue the legacy theme, auction proceeds (minus costs) will be donated to the oldest national non-profit conservation organisation in the United States, American Forests, a leader in forest restoration.

“Given the importance of oak in our craft, this partnership was a natural fit, aligning with our mission to leave a meaningful legacy for ongoing generations, via fundraising for the sustainable future of American oak trees,” comments Stephen Rankin.

Those who would like to learn more about the whisky ahead of its release are encouraged to register their interest at the brand’s official website at gordonandmacphail.com.
