Origin: Scotland

Distillery: The Macallan

A special release of 18-year-old single malt from The Macallan, distilled in 1979 and bottled in 1997. While The Macallan is well known for its sherry cask-matured whiskies, "sherried" does not even do this one justice. The Gran Reserva releases are seriously super sherried and highly sought after – the 1979 vintage is particularly popular within the series.

Distillery Information

The Macallan distillery is a single malt Scotch whisky distillery in Craigellachie, Moray, Scotland. The Macallan Distillers Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of Edrington, which purchased the brand from Highland Distillers in 1999. The Macallan is generally considered to be the second or third highest-selling single-malt scotch, next to Glenfiddich and, by some accounts, Glenlivet. Originally, The Macallan was matured only in oak sherry casks brought to the distillery from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. Beginning in 2004, The Macallan introduced a new main product, the Fine Oak series, with the whisky mellowed in bourbon oak casks as well as sherry ones. In 2018, the Fine Oak series was renamed as the Triple Cask Matured range.
