Convalmore 1984/2008 Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseurs Ch. 43% vol. 0,7l

Gordon & MacPhail is probably the most important independent bottler in Scotland.
Gordon & MacPhail has vast stocks of barrels from almost all distilleries, the stored vintages date back to the 30s.
The most famous series by Gordon & MacPhail is the Connoisseurs Choice with over 40 different bottlings.
There is also a Cask Strength series and bottlings under the name Spirit of Scotland and Speymalt.
One thing all the bottlings have in common is the very high, excellent quality.

Convalmore
Convalmore was built in Speyside in 1894 and has long been owned by WP Lowrie & Co. Ltd. guided and needed here for their own blends.
The owner changed hands several times and in 1990 Convalmore finally came into the possession of the Grant family (Glenfiddich), who use the since 1985 closed distillery as a warehouse.

Convalmore existed and is only available from the Independent Bottlers, but supplies are running low, too.

Convalmore produced a balanced, multi-layered malt that is syrupy, fruity and voluminous.
An excellent digestive malt.
