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.
Quest Collection
Created for the travel retail market in 2017, the Quest Collection appropriately celebrates the distillery’s quest to source the finest oak from all over the world (well, Europe and America at least). Perhaps unsurprisingly, the European Sherry oak influence increases as you work your way up the range, strongly suggesting that’s what suits the distillery’s viscous spirit best.
The entry point to the range, the eponymous Quest, is matured in a combination of American oak bourbon casks, and European & American, sherry seasoned casks and hogsheads.
40% ABV / 1 litre x 2
