Brand Story

Macallan is a Scottish whiskey distillery nestled in the Speyside region. Macallan happens to be a legendary whiskey distillery. Created in 1824 by Alexander Reid, it offers an unpeated whiskey and is based on 6 pillars: The estate and its history including Easter Elchies House, the small stills which forge the character of Macallan's "new make", oak barrels worked with great care, the use of sherry wine barrels thanks to collaborations with bodegas on specific shaping, a natural color and know-how perpetuated within the distillery since 1824. Finally, despite its glorious heritage and its luxurious advances, Macallan sports a strong green policy thanks to the arrival of the new distillery in 2018.

Product Detail

The 18 years old single malt was stored in American and European oak barrels, previously filled with Oloroso sherry. These are 'Sherry seasoned casks' - meaning the casks have been filled with sherry specifically for the Macallan Distillery for several years to impart their flavors to the whisky.
