The Macallan Fine & Rare collection was first introduced in 2002, selected by Bob Dalgarno, Whisky maker at The Macallan and David Cox. We continue to extend the range with superlative new vintages to maintain this collection as the finest and rarest range of single malt whiskies ever produced.
These bottlings are products of nature’s gentle process, undisturbed for decades in sherry seasoned oak casks. While the year each was bottled is specific, their longevity is open ended. Should they so wish, their guardians and their descendants could elect to keep them forever.
Together, these bottlings make up a family of remarkable individuals, spanning eight decades, the product of skilled generations of craftspeople. Left to slumber, they have achieved uncompromised excellence. While the world has never stopped spinning since the first cask, from 1926, was broached, these spirited bottles will remain constant and true, growing in esteem.
Indeed, The Macallan’s Fine & Rare vintages bridge the past and the future. They are each unique and beautiful. They distil those elements that confer greatness on The Macallan and, in doing so, on those who made them. They are, as one collection, the sensory proof that the skill, vision and passion that have long characterised one of the world’s greatest spirits remain as sacrosanct today as they have always been.
