October brings a double deal for Wh**ky of the Month:
Gordon & MacPhail's distinguished 50 year old wh**ky, was matured in carefully selected oak cask, creating a palate of to***co, dark fruits, and toasted cinnamon.
Benromach 12 was matured in the finest first-fill sherry casks, delivering rich fruitcake, raspberry and orange notes with cracked pepper and touch of smoke. Savour both!
