Long John McDonald Special Reserve is a 12 year old Scotch whisky, distilled, blended and bottled in Scotland by Long John Distilleries of Dumbarton. It is bottled at 40% in a 70cl bottle, and the label carries the date 1825. The nose is rich and complex, with raisins, sherry and malt, then caramel, toasted oak, vanilla and a faint background of ash or smoke. The palate is soft but full-bodied, with malty sweetness set against herbal notes, mint, cardamom and ripe fruit, and a light touch of peat smoke. The finish is clean and dry, medium to short, with a salty trace, fresh grass and the lingering sweetness of raisins.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
