Gordon & MacPhail Mr George Legacy Fourth Edition Glen Grant 65 Year Old 1958 Cask #3818

Gordon & MacPhail Mr George Legacy Fourth Edition Glen Grant 65 Year Old 1958 Single Malt Scotch Whisky is an extraordinarily rare Speyside expression celebrating the legacy of George Urquhart, a pioneering figure in single malt Scotch whisky. Distilled on October 23, 1958, at Glen Grant Distillery, this remarkable whisky spent 65 years maturing in a first-fill European oak sherry butt, personally selected and filled under Mr George's direction. Bottled on November 1, 2023, at a natural cask strength of 56.5% ABV, this exceptional release is limited to just 376 bottles worldwide. Representing the fourth chapter of Gordon & MacPhail's prestigious Mr George Legacy collection, it delivers remarkable depth, elegance and complexity shaped by more than six decades of maturation.

Food Pairing: Pairs beautifully with premium dark chocolate, aged Comté, roasted walnuts, dried figs, dark fruitcake and chocolate-covered espresso beans. Its mature sherry character also complements orange-infused desserts, caramelized nuts and rich Christmas pudding.

Tasting Notes: An exceptionally mature Speyside single malt with rich beeswax, molasses, stewed dark fruits, aged leather and warming spices. Layers of Seville orange, morello cherries, roasted coffee and seasoned oak create a beautifully balanced profile, finishing with a delicate trace of smoke.

Nose: Rich beeswax aromas unfold into dark molasses, stewed prunes and warm baking spices. Subtle notes of aged leather, mature oak and cocoa powder add remarkable depth.

Palate: Smooth and full-bodied, revealing Seville orange peel and dark morello cherries, followed by dried tobacco, roasted coffee beans, toasted oak and a delicate touch of liquorice.

Finish: Exceptionally long and balanced, with lingering mature oak, warming spice and a faint, elegant hint of smoke.
