Bottled in early 1970's. Proprietors R. Kemp. Macallan-Glenlivet Ltd., Bonded and Bottled by Gordon & MacPhail, Elgin
Good labelling with some staining. Level: into neck.
"...Wow. Espresso. Globally less sherried than the 1959 but maybe even more complex. The palate will determine which is our favourite... Mouth: extraordinary. It's got everything. A movie-malt that keeps changing while remaining extremely coherent. Dried fruits, herbs, jams, spices, leather, shoe polish (tarry and phenolic), tobacco... Oh well, please call the anti-maltoporn brigade! Finish: amazingly long, dry, clean... Superb pepper." (5 stars-Whiskyfun)
