The previous owner, who was also the first to own it, of this amazing, unique and rare 18 YO 1981 Macallan, bought the Macallan in New York in 2000 for just $ 75 (please check the pictures). It has been kept safely for the last 22 years and therefore the bottle and case are still in superb condition.
"The mystery of Sherry Oak maturation
For reasons not even science can wholly explain, whisky has always matured best in oak casks that have contained sherry. Due to increasing expense and scarcity, other distillers no longer insist of sherry casks. The Macallan Directors do.
Journeying annually to the bodegas of Jerez, Spain, they buy fresh oak casks into which they pour mature, carefully chosen sherries, then keep them for a further years in Spain before having them shipped over to be filled with whisky. The results are shown partly in The Macallan's rich golden colour, partly in the 'nose' and wholly, may we venture?"
