The Gordon Highlanders

Named after the Gordon Highlander regiment circa 1881 which in turn is named after Clan Gordon this blended whisky has the spirit of the highlands. Blended by Willian Great and Sons for the regiment as William Grant himself held the rank of major in the Gordon Highlanders in 1897 and to this day it remains the Whisky of the Regiment. Notes of chocolate, soft fruit, vanilla, fresh flowers and oak greet your nose but the palate brings oranges to the existing soft fruit and floral taste and just a slight touch of coffee ending with a medium finish of liquorice chilli pepper and walnuts. Not the smoothest but full of expression.
