Volume: 0.7 litres | Alcohol content: 58.5% | Chill filtration: No | Colouring: No

Special Features:

This single-cask Speymalt release was distilled on 25 September 2000 and matured for 25 years in first-fill sherry butt #3235. Gordon & MacPhail bottled the whisky on 6 March 2026 at 58.5%, with the cask yielding 556 bottles. The whisky is non-chill-filtered and contains no added colouring.

Stewed red fruit, dates and dark chocolate shape a rich, mature opening. Seville orange, toasted hazelnut and warming ginger then lead to a long finish of oak, marzipan and sherry character.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The nose brings together aromas of stewed red fruit, dates and dark chocolate.
• Palate: On the palate, Seville orange and toasted hazelnut meet warming ginger.
• Finish: The long finish is carried by mature oak, marzipan and a deep sherry character.

Distillery/Bottler:

The Macallan Distillery produced this Speyside single malt. Gordon & MacPhail took charge of the spirit, matured it in first-fill sherry butt #3235 and bottled the whisky after 25 years as a single-cask release.

Gordon & MacPhail uses the Speymalt name exclusively for whisky from The Macallan Distillery. The company sources the new make from the distillery and matures it in oak casks commissioned specifically for this range; every Speymalt bottling states its distillation and bottling years.
