Macallan – Glenlivet 1949- 1999 ( 50 Year Old)
A truly stunning and unbelievably rare bottle of post-war Macallan, distilled in 1949 and matured for circa 50 years before bottling at the turn of the millennium.
Only around 160 bottles of this precious vintage release were ever made for a private company in Japan. This 50-year-old liquid is housed in an elegant Baccarat crystal decanter. The wine has aromas of ripe fruit and citrus peel mixed with herbal peat. To the palate, the wine has a natural and rich fatty taste that awakens each of the senses, then lingers deeply to create an unforgettable impression.
One thing can be sure is that, with this limited quantity, this special edition will become even rarer and rarer, a version that ‘money can’t buy’ for any whiskey enthusiast. And it will be a feat, a huge effort to bring this limited edition, 1949 Macallan bottle to their collection.
