Founded in 1895, Gordon & MacPhail is a family-owned, independent bottler of Scotch whisky. The company was founded by James Gordon and John Alexander MacPhail, who opened “in New, Centrical, and Commodious Premises, No’s 38 and 40 South Street… a Family Grocers, Tea, Wine & Spirit Merchant,”reported the Elgin Courant on May 24, 1895. Among the company’s first employees was John Urquhart, a fifteen year-old apprentice who helped James Gordon select and purchase casks of whisky to bottle and sell at the store. When MacPhail retired in March 1915, Urquhart became a partner in the business, and when Gordon died suddenly just two weeks later, Urquhart became the senior partner. By 1950, Gordon & MacPhail held one of the largest inventories of bottled malt whiskies in the entire world, many of which were not available anywhere else. Today, the fourth generation of Urquharts — direct descendants of John Urquhart — leverage their experience and deep industry connections in order to obtain unique expressions of Scotch whisky. Glenburgie 10YO Single Malt Whisky is a single malt whisky aged in first fill sherry butts and refill sherry hogshead casks.
