    Kinclaith 16 Years Old 1966

    G&M Connoisseurs Choice
    Lot #0320148
    FINISH DATE
    31 July 2016

    This single malt was distilled in 1966 at now silent distillery Kinclaith and left to mature for 16 years before being bottled for the Connoisseurs Choice range by Gordon & MacPhail.

    It's very rare to see these bottles with the original box.

    Kinclaith

    An illustrious name in scotch whisky by reputation only, Kinclaith was a single malt distillery established within the Strathclyde grain whisky complex to produce a style of whisky. Starting production in 1957, it was until very recently, the last malt distillery to be built in Glasgow. Unfortunately, it lasted less than 2 decades and was dismantled in 1975. This was to make way for the expansion of Strathclyde’s capacity. Any trace of Kinclaith was demolished by 1982 and all that remains are a handful of independent bottlings that have appeared over the years. It was never released officially, instead, it is thanks to the support of Gordon & MacPhail and Signatory that we have some rare casks of this Glasgow distillery. Some of these are excellent but there are a couple that have a soapy characteristic, which suggests they should have gone into blends in the 1960s.
