Journey to the dawn of modern Scotch with Strathisla 58 Year Old – 1953 Vintage, Gordon & MacPhail (Cask #1614).
Laid down on 19 June 1953 in a single sherry-seasoned butt and quietly nurtured in Elgin for almost six decades, this venerable Speyside malt was drawn at 43 % ABV on 21 November 2012. Bottled non-chill-filtered and natural in colour, it reveals an exquisite collage of dark fruit, polished mahogany and subtle rancio leather—an irreplaceable glimpse of Strathisla’s post-war craftsmanship.
