Description
The Macallan distillery was founded in 1824 by Alexander Reid, a barley farmer and school teacher. Now owned by the Edrington Group, The Macallan prides itself on its Six Pillars, which include its curiously small stills, very narrow 'cut' of new make spirit and exceptional cask management. It is the most sought after whisky for collectors, regularly setting records at auctions all round the world. This is the second edition in The Macallan 1824 Collection series, presented in a hand-crafted crystal decanter and a rosewood presentation case. It was released exclusively for the travel retail market and aged in sherry oak casks, some of which were first fill. Only 1,824 bottles were released.
