The Macallan Hard To Find Single Sherry Cask Whisky 30 Year Old · 1989 Vintage
In stock
This rare and luxurious Macallan has been bottled by Hard To Find Whisky. Distilled at the legendary Macallan distillery in February 1989 and bottled in April 2019, having spent over 30 Years maturing in a single high quality Sherry Cask (Cask #2824). The result is a unique Single Cask expression that showcases the glorious character of well aged Macallan, and also the distinctive influence of carefully selected Oloroso Sherry seasoned oak. This Macallan has been bottled at natural Cask Strength of 44.1% ABV, with no chill filtering and 100% natural colour.
Single Cask bottlings of Macallan have become increasingly rare due to the cost and scarcity of casks. It is rarer still to find one with such an impressive age, and one that has been matured in a Sherry cask. You are unlikely to find an Independent bottling of Macallan of this age, with this quality, at this price again.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep mahogany-amber with coppery highlights and a ruby-tinted glow.
Nose
An indulgent nose of rich sherry, orange, clove and wood smoke.
Palate
Rich and generous, the palate unfolds with dried fruits, smooth chocolate, and sherry-soaked blood orange. Cinnamon and nutmeg mingle with subtle oak, all wrapped in a velvety, mouth-coating texture that lingers with refined sweetness and balance.
Finish
An opulent, lingering finish that slowly reveals rich Sherry sweetness, dried fruit and dark chocolate, threaded with orange zest and cinnamon. A silky warmth persists, perfectly balanced between sweetness and spice, with subtle oak notes unfolding into a long, refined finale.
