Once-private collection of rare ultra-aged luxury Scotch whiskies arrives in Canada

"...the Gordon family decided the timing was right to bottle and release some of these rare Scotch whiskies.

Kirsten Grant Meikle, a fifth-generation family member, says they sampled hundreds of whiskies from their personal inventory to curate the House of Hazelwood collection.

The seven products selected for shipment to Canada – for sale through the LCBO – are divided into two collections: the Charles Gordon Collection and the Legacy Collection"

“The Legacy Collection offers insight into the Scotch whisky industry as a whole,” Gibson says. “I would say most of them have a little X-factor about them that’s not replicated by any other offering on the market.”

"Sunshine on Speyside, for example, a 39-year-old Blended Malt Scotch Whisky, stands out for its unique character. “It just was one of those rare whiskies that are simply off-the-chart in terms of flavour profile – an absolute joy to drink and with a character that is both inexplicable and one-of-a-kind,” says Gibson, describing its tropical pineapple and mango notes."


It can be yours, only $3000 for a 700 ml bottle
