HTFW Cat. No: LP8715

A rare 1950 distillation of Macallan and aged for 33 years in Ex-Sherry casks and released as a Macallan-Glenlivet which was the name of this Speyside great from 1892.

Back in the days when the Glenlivet name was used by many distilleries to signify the high regard of Glenlivet single malt and often used by distilleries with no connection to or indeed any link to the area of the Glen of livet in Speyside at all.

Bottled by the independent and family owned Gordon & Macphail company who are still releasing fantastic old bottlings of Macallan under "The Speymalt" Range.

Please note damage to box.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Opulent sherried nose with dark dried fruits—raisin, fig and prune—layered over polished oak. Hints of leather and toffee emerge, joined by orange zest, cinnamon and nutmeg, with cocoa and a faint coffee nuance from long aging. Rich, warm, and inviting.

The Macallan
Macallan was founded by Alexander Reid in 1824 on the Easter Elchies Estate above the River Spey, and it was one of the first distilleries in Scotland to become legally licensed. The name comes from the older place name “Maghellan”, combining the Gaelic magh for fertile ground with a reference to St Fillan, who was associated with the church that once stood on the estate. Easter Elchies House, which remains central to the brand’s identity, dates from around 1700 and still sits at the heart of the estate.
