Strathisla 1987-2020 | 33 Year Old Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseurs Choice Single Cask 3053
Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 56.8%
A single cask Strathisla 1987 bottled as a 33-year-old without colouring or chill filtration in 2020 by G&M for their Connoisseur's Choice Cask Strength series.
This 33-year-old Strathisla 1987 came from a refill American hogshead cask that yielded just 174 bottles at its impressive natural cask strength of 56.8%. Strathisla is one of the greatest Speyside distilleries and G&M have been responsible for the vast majority of the best ever bottlings of its whisky. This should be an absolutely beautiful dram.
