Description

Gordon & MacPhail The Recollection Showcase


The Gordon & MacPhail Recollection Showcase embodies the company’s unique depth and breadth of single malt Scotch whiskies. Housed in a stunning, handcrafted cabinet made of elm and oak by the talented team at Method Studio, Linlithgow, the Lot features five uniquely engraved Glencairn decanters.


Each contains an extremely rare one-off 70cl single malt from a distillery that has been lost or silent for decades. They have never – and will never – be repeated in the history of the Scottish Whisky Industry.


The whiskies, bottled at cask strength, revive the spirit and character of where they were made:


Port Ellen 43 Year Old 1979 55.7% abv (The oldest expression of Port Ellen ever released by Gordon & MacPhail)

Refill Sherry Puncheon


Glen Mhor 56 Year Old 1966 56.4% abv

Refill Sherry Hogshead


Banff 56 Year Old 1966 45.1% abv

1st fill Puncheon


Caperdonich 51 Year Old Year Old 1972 56.0% abv

Refill Sherry Butt


Dallas Dhu 48 Year Old Year Old 1974 54.5% abv

Refill Sherry Butt


The winning bidder and a guest will also be invited to join Director of Prestige and family member, Stephen Rankin, for a suitably unique tasting of the whiskies at Gordon & MacPhail’s home in Elgin, Speyside.
