Description

A part of the highly popular, and much sought after, Gran Reserva series from Macallan.

Bottled in small batches, to showcase the extreme end of sherried whisky from the distillery, these Gran Reservas are now very hard to come by.

There will be many opinions referring to the time period of Whisky Production in Scotland that could be referred to as "The Golden Age of Whisky." There is a time however that without doubt was special and considered by many that period.

The whisky made early 60s-70s with direct firing of stills, the abundant use of Golden Promise Barley, a slower more deliberated approach to production and even a more generous portion of malts in blends of the period ,all lead to a treasure of never again to be repeated whiskies. We refer to this as the "The Golden Era of whisky."

Please note that this is an old bottle and due to age and evaporation, the bottling may be a short filler.

Watch for whiskies from Turmeaus that is identified as such and give it careful consideration when you feel like a rare and special dram.

Please note as this is a vintage product, conditions of bottle/label and liquid level can vary - note, wear to label and capsule & fill level.

 

More Info

A floral whisky which is heavy on citrus and soon leans towards spiced fruits with raisin overtones.

Oak and vanilla soon appears with a hint of peat which can also be found in the very long, rich, and slightly dry finish.

 

Taste Test

Whiskyfun has scored this Macallan 18 Year Old 1979 Gran Reserva 91/100 overall on their site through customer recommendations.

Serge said, ‘Starts on heady notes of mulled wine, cloves, big juniper berries, spearmint and coffee toffee and gets then more classically sherried, with the dark chocolate upfront and then notes of soy sauce, balsamico and barbecued beef.’
