A rare and highly sought after whisky, the 18 year old is actually the very youngest of the malts included in this Macallan release. Distilled in at least 1990 and aged in sherry casks before being bottled in 2008, this blend of malts is a collector's item that no discerning connoisseur should be without.
The Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Oak from 1990 is a distinguished single malt, which is exclusively matured in hand-picked sherry casks from Jerez, Spain, and offers an exceptionally deep and nuanced flavor profile.
"This vintage represents The Macallan's commitment to quality and tradition over the years."
