Distillery description

The Macallan is a prestigious Scottish whisky distillery located in Speyside and is regarded as one of the world's most respected single malt whisky brands. Founded in 1824 by Alexander Reid, it is now owned by the Edrington Group. While The Macallan was initially a key ingredient in blended whiskies, it wasn't until the 1980s, amid declining demand for blends, that it shifted focus to single malts. A marketing team led by Allan Shiach, Frank Newlands, Hugh Mitcalfe, and Willie Phillips positioned The Macallan as a premium whisky, earning it the nickname "Cognac whisky." The brand gained wider appeal through imaginative and provocative ad campaigns. A major milestone was the launch of the "Fine & Rare" series and a collaboration with Lalique, which created special decanters for rare, aged editions like the 50- and 60-year-old whiskies. This helped The Macallan carve out a place in the luxury whisky market. Today, it is one of the most sought-after whiskies in the world, cherished by connoisseurs, collectors, and investors alike.

Bottle description

The Macallan Fine Oak 18 Years Old is a single malt whisky aged for at least 18 years in a combination of three types of casks: bourbon and sherry casks made from both European and American oak. This unique maturation process gives the whisky a rich, complex profile with a blend of exotic and tropical notes, balanced by subtle wood smoke.

Nose: Intoxicating and exotic, with hints of jasmine, tropical fruit, and peat.

Taste: Smooth and rich, featuring citrus, spices, and woody smoke.

Finish: Long and lingering, with a touch of orange peel.

Size: 700 ml | Duty stamp: CZ | Packaging: paper box | Bottle code: L0890G L8 01/11 08:26
