ISLE OF JURA 28 ans 1997 Refill American Hogshead Gordon & Macphail

Created in 1968 by whisky pioneer George Urquhart, the Connoisseurs Choice range by Gordon & MacPhail has become one of the most respected independent bottling collections in the whisky world. With more than 2,000 releases spanning almost 100 distilleries, the series showcases Gordon & MacPhail’s expertise in matching spirit to oak casks, a skill refined over four generations. Every release is bottled without chill filtration to preserve its natural character and texture.

This Isle of Jura 28 Year Old 1997 Refill American Hogshead demonstrates the elegance that can emerge through long maturation. Aged for nearly three decades in a refill American oak hogshead, the cask influence remains gentle, allowing the distillery’s character to shine while adding subtle complexity and depth. Layers of tropical fruits, floral sweetness and delicate spice develop alongside refined oak notes, resulting in a beautifully mature and balanced single malt.
