Producer Description
"Filled in 1953 this spirit from Glen Grant Distillery has been matured by Gordon MacPhail in a first fill Sherry butt made specifically to complement the liquid.
‘Mr George’, as he was fondly known by those who knew him best, was Mr George Urquhart, second generation of the family that owns Gordon & MacPhail. A true pioneer, Mr George was instrumental to the success of Scotch whisky, particularly single malts.
"Mr George travelled widely, keen to showcase single malts from distilleries all over Scotland, matured in his own casks. This exceptional whisky is a fitting tribute to his pioneering spirit."
