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.
Part of Macallan's prestigious Fine & Rare range. This vintage whisky was first bottled in 1977 as a 37 year old, before being re-bottled in 2002 to fit in with the new range.
