Incredibly limited with remarkable investment value
The distiller's notes – we haven't had a sip yet of this incredibly rare RM400,000 elixir – speak of peach and vanilla flavours, some orange zest and ginger, as well as antique oak with a trace of
lingering peat. While peat isn't normally a character you'd find in a Macallan, back when this was distilled, peat was being used in drying the barley. It's a wonderful marker of
time and the difference history makes.
Hailing from a single cask as it does, this single malt is limited to just 336 bottles, with rumours of a select few making its way to Malaysian shores. While the price tag seems steep, you can bet
they will sell fast and
will go for even larger sums on the secondary market.
The Exceptional Single Cask range was added to the brand's portfolio in 2017. This new bottle joins seven bottles in the series that were released in 2017 and range in age from 12 to 22 years old.
These whiskies are always cask strength, and the 2019 release is no different, coming in at a feisty 106.8 proof. It was bottled in September 2018. For further enquires and to purchase; contact
