This fantastic Rare Old whisky from Gordon & MacPhail was distilled at Banff in 1966.
Aged for nearly five decades, this was bottled in 2015 as part of Gordon and Macphail's rare old range, more than three decades after the distillery closed.
Due to the closure of the distillery, this 1966 Banff is a rare find. This whisky is a real gem and with not many bottles of it left around, this is a bottle to be had!
