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 2017 release of the iconic Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Oak is matured exclusively in hand-selected sherry seasoned European oak casks from Jerez, Spain. This bottling is notable as one of the last to feature the traditional purple presentation gift box and bottle design before a brand redesign in 2018. The whisky was distilled from spirit in 1999 and earlier.
