This Glen Mhor 1980 27 year old expression from Gordon & Macphail was distilled in 1980 and bottled 2007 at 43%.
Glen Mhor (pronounced Vawr and meaning Great Glen) was built in 1892, next to the Caladonian canal basin and close to the Highland railway line near Inverness.
Distilling commenced in 1894. In 1972 DCL took over the distillery together with Glen Albyn next door. Inspite of blended whiskies dominating the market throughout the 20th century the quality of Glen Mhor was such that it was sold and marketed as a single malt, although it was also an important malt whisky for blending. The distillery was closed in 1983 along with many more at that time and demolished in 1986. A supermarket stands on the site.
