Macallan 10 Year Old Sherry Cask Circa 1990

Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 75cl / 40%

A lovely old bottle of Macallan 10-year-old Speyside single malt whisky, this version was bottled back around the turn of the 1990s, when all Macallans were 100% sherry matured and the Macallan 10-year-old was the acknowledged gold standard for entry-level official bottlings.

This 1990-ish Macallan 10-year-old has one of the classic labels from before the packaging was tweaked, so we reckon it's safe to say that it would have been bottled in the early to mid-1990s. These old school 1990s Macallan bottlings are a wonderful throwback to a simpler time - the golden age for whisky drinkers of a certain age - and of course the whisky still stands up as an absolute classic of the rich sherry-matured Speyside style.

This delightful old Macallan 10-year-old is a classical old Speyside style character, with bags of soft fruits, earthiness, dried mushrooms, touches of rancio, balsamico and wood spices. For those that wonder what it was that built Macallan such a massive reputation, look no further than one of these beautiful old bottlings.
