Within the Private Collection, Gordon & Macphail are pleased to introduce “The Recollection Series” – rare single malts that revive and celebrate the character of now-closed distilleries.

This 1981 Lochside is one of only 141 bottles drawn from cask #802.

Nose: Rich Sherry aromas complement fragrant mandarin peel. Salted almonds come to the fore with raspberry compote and faint malted biscuit.

Palate: Roasted coffee beans lead to walnuts and stewed raisins. Blackcurrant jam accompanies Seville orange peel and red apple.

Finish: A long finish with lingering hazelnuts and cocoa powder.
