Lot number: 095-4327

Winning bid: £2,600

The Macallan distillery was founded in 1824 by Alexander Reid, a barley farmer and school teacher. Now owned by the Edrington Group, The Macallan prides itself on its Six Pillars, which include its curiously small stills, very narrow 'cut' of new make spirit and exceptional cask management. It is the most sought after whisky for collectors, regularly setting records at auctions all round the world.

1841

The 1841 was the third in a series of controversial replica bottlings of Macallan from the distillery. Whatever the provenance of the bottles that were replicated, the whisky is meant to be tremendous (the late great Michael Jackson gave this a 95 point score).

41.7% ABV / 70cl

1861

A very rare Macallan, the second in the series of Macallan's Replica Series to recreate the style of whisky from the nineteenth century. Now discontinued.

42.7% ABV / 70cl

1874

The first edition of Macallan's replicas of its 1874 whisky, looking like the original and with a style based on some samples of the legendary old dram.

45% ABV / 70cl

1876

When two casks of pre 20th century Macallan were found it was decided that there should be a release of this old style Macallan. Bob Dalgarno, Macallan's master blender set about recreating them. This is the third release in the series.

Bottled: 2003

40.6% ABV / 70cl

1851 Inspiration

This single malt is inspired by the original, first distilled in 1851.
