Description
The Macallan distillery was founded in 1824 by Alexander Reid, a barley farmer and school teacher. Now owned by the Edrington Group, The Macallan prides itself on its Six Pillars, which include its curiously small stills, very narrow 'cut' of new make spirit and exceptional cask management. It is the most sought after whisky for collectors, regularly setting records at auctions all round the world. This Macallan Easter Elchies 2008 is a 12-year-old single malt, distilled in 1995 and bottled in 2008. It was matured in a Sherry Oak Cask and is non-chill filtered. This release is part of the Easter Elchies Cask Selection series, which are limited edition, distillery-exclusive bottlings.
