Cuvée presentation

A single malt Dailuaine distilled in 1974 and bottled in 1995 by Gordon & MacPhail. Gordon & MacPhail was founded in Elgin in 1895 by James Gordon and John Alexander MacPhail. As was often the case at the time, the business started out as a delicatessen and wine merchant. In 1915, John Alexander MacPhail retired and a new partner joined the business, John Urquhart. He was joined by his son George in 1933, a few years after James Gordon died in a car crash. Gordon & MacPhail works with many of Speyside’s leading distilleries, from whom it has accumulated considerable stocks. It is also licensed to bottle whiskies for many of them, including Glen Grant, Linkwood, Mortlach, Macallan and Glenlivet. The business really took off in the 1970s, acquiring distributors in a huge range of countries and selling casks to several Italian bottlers in selections that would become legends in their own right. Gordon & MacPhail is still run by the Urquhart family today, from the same building, and is one of the most iconic bottlers in the industry, with incredible stocks of sometimes very old and rare whiskies. The company is in complete control of the entire maturation process. Gordon & MacPhail has also owned the Benromach distillery since 1993.

The distillery Dailuaine

Scotland, Speyside. Distillery operational. Owner: Diageo

Founded in 1860, Dailuaine was quickly incorporated into the Distillers Company Limited, which saved a large number of Scottish distilleries from closure at the end of the First World War. From then on, it became a key component in the blends Buchanan and Johnnie Walker. Its name was also associated with that of the Talisker distillery, with which it formed part of the group Dailuaine - Talisker Distilleries Ltd. for some 15 years between 1989 and 1915. A trademark still by found by a lucky few on historic bottlings of Talisker. Bottlings in its own name are extremely limited and found in the ranges The Rare Malts Selection, Flora & Fauna and Manager's Dram. Notably, however, a superb limited edition was released in 1997 in the very brief Flora & Fauna Cask Strength range, a sherry cask 1980 vintage.
