Highland Park 8 year old 100 Proof Gordon & Macphail
This stunning 8 year old Highland Park is a Gordon & Macphail bottling from pre-1973. How do we know this? Europe switched to ABV in 1973, and bottles from after then show the ABV as well. This particular example is a good demonstration of the flexibility of the labelling at the time; where the label has faded slightly in the sun you can see the original "70 proof" marking of the label peaking through. While today's laws on labelling are very strict, there were no such constraints in the 1970s, so for this bottle run, instead of printing more labels, they simply edited the existing 70 proof label, re-stamping 100 proof and the volume on the label. These 100 proof bottlings are pretty rare, and this wonderful example of 1970s labelling quirks is even rarer - a gem for any collection.
This single malt is from the highland region of Scotland and Highland Park is one of the biggest distilleries of the 47 in this region.
