This is a 42-year-old Speyside single malt from Longmorn, distilled in 1969 and bottled in 2011 by Gordon & MacPhail for Van Wees, as part of its Reserve range. It was matured in a first-fill sherry butt, cask 5294, and bottled at 59.4% ABV. The outturn was 402 bottles, in a 70cl bottle.
The nose brings figs, raisins, chocolate, old cognac, melon jam and oriental pastries, with pipe tobacco, tar and gunpowder once water is added. The palate is fresh and zesty, with blood oranges and bananas. The finish is long and fruity, with liqueurs, jams and syrup that stay far from cloying.
