Mortlach 75 Year Old - The Oldest Whisky in the World!
We had the privilege of attending the launch of Gordon & MacPhail's latest Generations release, last week at the Royal Opera House, London. Our tasting notes on this fantastic Mortlach 75 year old will soon follow, but for now here's a snippet of info on this historic release...
Generations Mortlach 75 Years Old is presented in the iconic teardrop-shaped Generations decanter. Each decanter is uniquely numbered and skilfully handcrafted with 75 multi-level ‘cuts’; each cut representing a year of the whisky’s maturation. The decanter sits on a white presentation plinth with two specially designed crystal glasses.
The decanter is packaged in a luxury Aniline leather travel bag and accompanied by a specially commissioned book, Seven Nights with Mortlach. Acclaimed whisky writer, Charles Maclean and international bestselling author, Alexander McCall Smith have joined forces to tell tales of Scotland, whisky and the people behind this special malt, accompanied by illustrations from up and coming Scottish artists.
Mortlach 75 Years Old by Gordon & MacPhail was matured in a first-fill Sherry butt cask. Priced at £20,000, only 100 decanters, bottled at cask strength (44.4% ABV), have been released for worldwide sale.
