The Macallan 18 yo

Product Code:

The epitome of Speyside malts. So rich and full and smooth, a huge malt with lots of Sherry flavour.

Tasting Notes : Up-front, rich and honeyed with wine-like sweetness and hints of almonds, pears and heather at the finish.

Producer : The Macallan

Method of Production : Pure borehole water is mixed with lightly peaty, ground 'Golden Promise' barley malt. Macallan use 90% of Scotland's annual crop of this superior barley. Fermentation in stainless-steel washbacks precedes distillation in directly fired pot stills. Each wash still feeds 2 spirit stills, the small spirit stills give rich spirit. Macallan take the best 17% of each distillation (less than other distillers). 18 years ageing in Sherry casks gives great richness.

Product Reviews

The best value Macallan on the market. Miles better than the ten, far better than the twelve and a fraction of the cost of the twenty five.(the 25 year old has to be the best malt whisky ever made!)
