Description

The Macallan 1980 18 Year Old Gran Reserva is a highly sought-after Speyside single malt whisky, part of the renowned Gran Reserva series. This series, which ran from 1997 to 2002, was created to showcase heavily sherried whiskies, bottled in small batches from casks deemed too exceptional for the standard 18-year-old bottlings. This expression was distilled in 1980 and matured for 18 years in Oloroso sherry casks before being bottled in 1999. It is presented in a wooden box and is considered a valuable collector's item due to its limited availability and rich character.
