Founded in 1895, Gordon & MacPhail has been bottling single malt whiskies for 120 years and by the 1950s it held the largest range of bottled malt whiskies in the world. This family-run business has bottled the oldest single malt whisky in the world - a Mortlach 1939 75 Year Old - as well as being a distiller itself after buying Benromach in 1993. They bottle whisky across several ranges including Connoisseurs Choice, the Private Collection, and their most exclusive, Generations.
The Secret Stills range was a step in a different direction for Gordon & MacPhail and adds an element of mystery to their bottlings by simply listing the region in which the distillery is located. As always, the indie bottlers have a set of specifications the whiskies need to keep to: in this range, they must be anonymous and identifiable only by code and must be aged entirely in Gordon & MacPhail casks.
