Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky Distillery Bottling 70cl / 40%
The magnificent Macallan 1979 Gran Reserva 18-year-old. This was the first and best release in the legendary Macallan Gran Reserva series and is still regarded as one of the finest heavily-sherried teenage Macallans ever released.
The first edition of Macallan Gran Reserva 18-year-old came from a batch of 1979 casks that were bottled in 1997, presumably after they were judged to be too good for the core range Macallan 18-year-old.
This somewhat cynical decision was to be fully justified by the response. Presented in a chunky, calligraphed wooden box, Macallan 1979 Gran Reserva 18-year-old caused a sensation among whisky fans - despite being priced at a whopping £75, which was nearly double the RRP for the standard Macallan 18-year-old at the time.
A stunning mixture of dark fruit and chocolate with simmering spice, coffee, balsamico and sweet, nutty, earthy complexity, Macallan Gran Reserva 1979 is a simply majestic whisky.

2 bottles of this lovely single malt were bought as gifts. Sampled a couple of drams from one bottle and it went well above expectations. The quality, integrity, natural colour, cask strength ABV and value-for-money made these bottles 'no-brainers'.
Present us with more of these quality bottles at fair prices...and we'll buy more.
This is a heavily sherried dram that tastes of dates and raisins with a touch of honey and vanilla. It’s pretty soft and smooth without water but a few drops seem to thicken it up slightly and add hints of caramel. Absolutely gorgeous.
