Selected, matured and independently bottled by Gordon & MacPhail for their Connoisseurs Choice range, this was distilled in 2005 and set aside to mature in refill Bourbon barrels until 2016, when it was bottled at 46% ABV.

Aultmore distillery was procured by John Dewar & Sons in 1925. So key is it to their blends, that it has been part of their outfit ever since, and has rarely been bottled as an official single malt. United Distillers included in the Flora & Fauna range of the 1990s, but it was not until after Bacardi acquired Dewar's in 1998 that the distillery's excellent spirit was rewarded with its own fully fledged single malt brand. Thankfully, casks have always been made available for independent bottlings like this.
