Mannochmore 1991 - Connoisseurs Choice (Gordon & Macphail)
Mannochmore
Tasting Notes
Imagine strolling through an orchard on a crisp autumn day, the fragrance of honey-kissed clover lingering in the air, mingling with the earthy scent of freshly cut hay. This is the alluring aroma that greets you as you uncork the Mannochmore 1991 - Connoisseurs Choice. On the palate, a delightful interplay unfolds – a whisper of smokiness dances alongside the tart sweetness of crisp green apples and the lush, succulent notes of ripe conference pears. As you savor each sip, the flavors linger, unveiling a delightful finale that evokes the tantalizing aroma of warm apple tart infused with hints of spice. This dram, distilled shortly after Mannochmore's reopening in 1991 and carefully nurtured by Gordon & MacPhail until its bottling in 2011, is a true testament to the art of patient maturation and the enduring legacy of Speyside's skilled distillers.
