The Rare Old range of single malt whiskies from various renowned Scottish distilleries has been made available via Gordon & MacPhail.

The whiskies were laid down by Gordon & MacPhail decades ago and hail from seven distilleries - several of which are no longer in operation.

The seven whiskies in the series are: Glenlochy 1979, Glencraig 1975, Glenugie 1970, Port Ellen 1979, St Magdalene 1975, Mosstowie 1979 and Glenury Royal 1984.

The whiskies will be housed in new packaging, with Gordon & MacPhail embossed bottles and presented in classic Burgundy boxes.

Michael Urquhart, Gordon & MacPhail's managing director, said: Since Gordon & MacPhail's founding in 1895, our own casks have been filled with 'new-make' spirit from the majority of distilleries throughout Scotland. The Rare Old range follows this philosophy. The distilleries featured in this latest release have ceased producing, therefore the whiskies bottled in the series are unlikely to be seen again."

The Rare Old Series carries an rrp of between £240 and £510.
