It may be hard to imagine today, but for much of the 20th century and more, Macallan 1977 Cask 1977 was primarily a constituent malt in blends. It was not until the 1980s downturn in the market that the distillery decided to focus on its single malt brand. Fortuitously, this coincided with the crest of a wave of enthusiasm for the high quality releases that the distillery had licensed to Campbell, Hope & King and Gordon & McPhail in the 1960s and 1970s.Therefore, these remain some of the most collectible on the market. While global single malt sales volume is still lead by Speyside neighbors, Glenfiddich and Glenlivet, Macallan 1977 Cask is easily the most sought after. So much so in fact, that they had to open a brand new distillery in 2018, a subterranean architectural masterpiece within the Easter Eliches estate, boasting 36 copper pot stills.

Macallan vintage releases produced by Campbell, Hope & King tended to be aged around the 15 year old mark, but when Macallan took over the responsibility in 1980, they toyed for a few releases with more advanced age-statements of 17 and 18 years old. The latter was deemed the optimum maturation, and the official 18 year old was launched in 1984. It is now an absolute classic of the whisky world.

These 1990s releases were packaged in the instantly recognizable purple-sashed white boxes, featuring the Sara Midda watercolors of Easter Eliches house, synonymous with Macallan of the period. Wholesale Macallan Store online , Cheap Whiskey online Store, Online Macallan Whiskey Supplier
