1989 Gordon & MacPhail Bottle Crowned 2023 Whisky Of The YearAnd the award goes to ... Gordon & MacPhail. The family-owned distillery, located in Scotland's famed whisky region on the south coast of the Moray Firth, is the winner of the 2023 International Whisky Competition's award for Whisky of the Year. The distillery earned the award for its Connoisseurs Choice 31-Year-Old Scotch whisky. The vintage, which was distilled in 1989 at the family's Mortlach Distillery, is a mahogany-toned spirit that has initial tasting notes of brown sugar and stewed apples that give way to glacé cherries and raisins with a touch of honey,ginger, and almonds. According to a press release received by Tasting Table, the award-winning whisky, which has been stored in refill sherry hogsheads for more than three decades, showcases Gordon & MacPhail's commitment to allowing its whiskies to mature slowly into complex single malts. "This accolade is a testament not only to the exceptional quality of the Mortlach spirit but also to our expert team in selecting the ideal cask and maturing it for just the right amount of time," said Richard Urquhart, the distillery's head of sales for the Americas. https://lnkd.in/gMrjqegE#investment #opportunity #whiskycollection #whiskylover #whiskybarrel #whiskycask #invest #investor #Investing #investors #assets #asset #assetmanagement #assetprotection #whisky #whiskylife #scotland #scottish #scottishbusiness

I get to taste lots of new Whisky, which is nice.Because of new technology and a deep understanding of how it's made, most (if not all) of the Scotch coming out of Scotland is pretty good.You get the odd 'expert' who'll tell you about Sulphur notes and other 'notes', which render it not as good, in their pretentious tasting 'notes'.I've never noticed this. As you might see, I'm not a fan of being told what I'm tasting. If I'm told I'm 'getting' cough sweets or other such preposterous pointers, it's usually a pointer that it's probably going to be a wee bit too serious a tasting for me.When I first tasted Lindores, it was pretty clear it was rather good, for all sorts of reasons. That's why you know that this special finish will ALSO be rather good, for all sorts of reasons. I fully understand that some people might not like it. Just like I'm not a huge fan of heavily peated Octomore. It doesn't mean I'd review it as bad. MOST Scotch Whisky is 'flavoured', whether that's with Peat smoke, Sherry, Bourbon, or in this case, Wine. You need to find one you like, THAT is the purpose of Tastings. Finding one you like, not being sniffy about one you don't.#ScotchWhiskyTruths
