Caperdonich 1972 Connoisseurs Choice Gordon & MacPhail

Revisit a lost Speyside gem with Caperdonich 39 Year Old – 1972 Vintage, Connoisseurs Choice (bottled 2011). Distilled when the distillery was still known locally as “Glen Grant No. 2,” this single malt slumbered for nearly four decades in a single first‑fill sherry butt before being released by Gordon & MacPhail as part of their revered Connoisseurs Choice series. Closed since 2002 and long since dismantled, Caperdonich lives on only in rare casks like this—showcasing a sublime union of orchard‑fruit elegance, opulent sherry richness and polished antique oak.
