Glen Avon 1973 Gordon and MacPhail 16 Year Old Original 'Cask' 75cl / US Import

A wonderful old bottling of a mystery Speyside single malt by Gordon & MacPhail. 

Italian importer Ernesto Mainardi purchased a number of bottlings of Glen Avon for his Sestante label in the 1980s, and has previously stated that Glen Avon was Glenfarclas single malt, but this has never been confirmed (or denied) by Gordon & MacPhail.

This 1973 vintage is from Gordon & MacPhail's Original 'Cask' series, which represented their first foray into cask strength bottlings in order to keep up with the market trend in preference for these in the late 1980s.
