Macallan 1967 18 Years bottled in the Year 1986 Sherry Wood Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 43.0% Vol. - absolutely rare 75cl bottling of a stunning old style Macallan Highland Single Malt for the German market and Jumac GmbH in Bonn!
An incredible rare vintage 1967 18 years old Macallan Sherry Wood Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky, which was bottled at 75cl in the year 1986 exclusively for the Jumac GmbH in Bonn and the German market and today one of Macallan s rare original bottlings from the late 1960s.
This particular old style Highland Single Malt was produced without the addition of dyes and chill filtration at 43.0% vol. and is part of the series that has given Macallan its almost legendary reputation: the pure sherry cask bottlings. It was not until the middle of the 1960s that Macallan concentrated on single-malts matured in the sherry barrel and, with the exceptional barrel policy, gained great recognition among whisky connoisseurs worldwide. At that time they experimented with different sherry casks and decided to use European Oloroso casks, which previously stored the world-famous Spanish liqueur wine. Despite the crisis in the 1980s among the sherry producers, the Speyside distillery Macallan succeeded in securing the supply of selected sherry barrels and filling the coveted Sherry-Cask whiskys further.
Today, the 18-year-old Sherry-Oak Macallan is one of the best-known and sought-after whiskys, enjoying an almost legendary reputation because of its excellent quality and filling without any dyes and can be described as an icon among the Scotch whiskys. In the year 1986 Macallan changed the design and packaging of the 18 Years Sherry Oak range. These bottles and packaging have a modern shape and from the year 1992 onwards, the bottlings to the existing bottle code for the protection against counterfeiting were added with a safety hologram at the capsule and each one have an individual number.
The early to mid 1980s bottlings of the 18yo Macallan tend to show a much gamier, meatier profile with notes of Spices, cloves, oranges, dried fruit with some smoke and lots of classic sherry intensity. Super soft and typically luxurious in style.
A terrific old Macallan Haighland single malt scotch whisky and a special highlight for enthusiasts, investors and whisky-collectors of extraordinary old style Scotch whiskies - today almost impossible to find!
