Cuvée presentation

Single cask Longmorn (#8897), distilled in 1985 and bottled in 2018. A.D. Rattray was founded in 1868 by Andrew Dewar Rattray, then an importer of wine, rum and olive oil who also bought, stored and blended malt and grain whiskies. Following his death in 1910 and a difficult period during the 1920s, the company passed into the hands of William Walker in 1938. His daughter married Stanley P. Morrison the following year, and her sister inherited A.D. Rattray in 1949. Stanley P. Morrison’s son, Stanley Walker Morrison, acquired A.D. Rattray from his aunt in 1993, a year before Morrison Bowmore was acquired by Beam Suntory. He revived the brand in 2002 and launched the Cask Collection in 2004. Limited edition of 167 bottles.

The distillery Longmorn

Scotland, Speyside. Distillery operational. Owner: Chivas Brothers, Pernod Ricard

A blender's malt par excellence, Longmorn is considered a “Top Malt” in the Scotch whisky industry. This title, shared by just a dozen of the hundreds of distilleries spread across the Highlands including Macallan, enabled it to survive the difficulties of the 20th century in the shadow of Chivas Regal. For a long time limited to just two expressions, Longmorn 10 Year Old and Longmorn 15 Year Old, it would not be until the 21st century (2004) that its owners recognized its right to exist on the international scene as a single malt and equipped it with its own special bottlings. In the meantime, independent bottlers took to the malt. Making sherry-cask maturation its trademark, Gordon & MacPhail gave it an identity revered by and renowned amongst enthusiasts and collectors.
