40 Year Old Sherry Oak Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

Bottle size

Released a handful of times in the distillery's near 200-year lifetime (four to be exact), The Macallan 40 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is one of the finest and rarest examples of the Macallan's whisky-making pedigree, and one that truly ensnares what it means to be a true Macallan malt. Distilled in the late 70's and matured exclusively in the finest sherry oak casks sourced from Jerez, Spain, this 88-proof single malt scotch whisky is limited to just 465 bottles, placing it amongst esteemed company as one of The Macallan's rarest and most exclusive bottlings.

About the brand

The Macallan is easily recognizable as one of the most prolific brands of elite-status single malt Scotch on the market today. The Macallan Distillery was founded in 1824 by school teacher and barley farmer Alexander Reid, soon after the Scottish Excise Act was passed to legalize the distillation of whisky. The brand specializes in high-quality single malt Scotch whisky and is one of the first brands of Scotch to take advantage of the marketability, taste, and profound influence available in the making of premium whisky – the scale of which has afforded Macallan ownership of up to 1/3 of the global single malt Scotch market. This superior whisky combines classic distillation techniques with an innovative specialty in casks, and is the only Scotch distillery in the world to have its own Master of Wood - a role involving sourcing and curating Macallan’s 200,000+ oak barrel stocks derived from trees grown in the US and Spain.
