Glenrothes 8 year old Gordon & Macphail
The Glenrothes distillery has been producing Speyside whisky 1879. This 8 Year Old scotch malt was bottled at 40% by Gordon & MacPhail independent bottlers.
Glenrothes had a rocky early history, with its share of catastrophic building issues, the two most notable ones coming only six years apart; 1897 saw fires ravage the distillery and then in 1903, a huge explosion caused substantial damage to the main building and warehouses.
After this Glenrothes saw significant growth throughout the mid nineteen hundreds and was purchased by Edrington in 1999. Berry Brothers of London took over the brand from 2010 – 2017, before it was returned to Edrington. Edrington have been clear with their intentions toward the Glenrothes brand being in the super premium sector with classic sherry cask usage front and centre.
Gordon & Macphail are one of the oldest whisky bottlers to exist in the world. Bottling over 350 expressions from over 70 distilleries, as well as bottling whisky for numerous large distilleries in Scotland for decades. Bottling whisky for 115 years and now proud owners of the Benromach distillery since 1993. They did nearly purchase Strathisla Distillery from Seagram’s in the 1950’s, but Seagram’s wanted £71,000, whereas G&M only offered £70,000. Imagine.
