Imperial 1979/2023 G&M PVC Private Collection #5317

Special features: This approximately 43-year-old single malt from the long-closed Imperial Distillery presents itself as a rare and refined treasure. Bottled in 2023 by Gordon & MacPhail for the prestigious Private Collection, this edition counts only 133 bottles. Aged in a refill American Hogshead (cask number 5317), the whisky reveals a profound complexity and impressively tells the story of Speyside.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: Ripe fruit notes with hints of honey, vanilla, and subtle spices.
  • Palate: Velvety with flavors of dried fruits, toffee, and finely woven wood nuances.
  • Finish: Long-lasting, warm, and slightly spicy with a touch of oak.

Distillery/Bottler: The Imperial Distillery, located in the heart of Speyside, was closed in 1965 and is now one of the sought-after classics among whisky connoisseurs. Gordon & MacPhail, one of the most renowned independent bottlers in Scotland with a long tradition since 1895, brings these valued rarities exclusively to market in limited editions through the Private Collection.
