G&M Private Collection Glen Mhor 1982
$4,199.99
One of the lost Speyside triplets (alongside Glen Albyn and Millburn), Glen Mhor may be most recognized for being one of the component malts used to recreate the Mackinlay's Rare Old Highland Malt (you know... the Shackleton recreation from a few years back). It is a distillery that has never had the romantic draw that other lost gems like Brora, Port Ellen, or Rosebank have, but we are now 40 years past the last spirit run at Glen Mhor and the very little we ever see is now always extravantly priced and packaged. And a bottling such as this one is exactly the reason why. 93 points on Whiskyfun (one of only two or three sources we trust almost implicitly) should tell you all you need to know. With an endorsement like that, there should be a bloodbath for the few bottles we're getting. Refill Sherry Hogshead #72 yielded only 174 bottles.
Natural colour, non-chill filtered, and bottled at 50.8%
