So that customers can appreciate very old vintage Whiskies, vintagewinegifts have rebottled and recorked a small selection of classic vintage Whisky for you to enjoy. This bottling is a 10cl bottle of This Macallan Glenlivet 17 Year Old Single Malt Whisky which was distilled in 1963 and bottled in 1980 at 75% proof. Whiskyfun.com "Here’s a rare old unsherried Macallan, just one month older than Olivier. Quite unusual! The colour is incredibly pale, like some white wine’s, and at first nosing it’s mellow and warming. Beautiful nose with cold coffee, flowers from the fields, freshly cut apple, gooseberry. No sherry at all. Hints of liquorice, gets a little grassy. Very nice, it helps check that Macallan is a very fine distillery, not only a special wood treatment factory. The first mouthfeel is quite balanced, but extremely powerful. Malty and yeasty (fresh bread crumb), then grassy (rhubarb) with lots of liquorice stick and wood. Gets a little too spirity (pear, apple). Too bad, the palate doesn’t match the nose. Again, it’s bold and robust, but a little too simple: it lacks some finesse, even if we can find some interesting aspects in it. No need to tell that nobody would say it’s Macallan when tasting it blind In fact, both Olivier and I become to feel tired after having tasted all these unsherried cask strength Speysiders. Duty, heavy duty, but this isn’t the most attractive Scottish style Time to switch to heavy-sherry mode!!! Our ratings for the Mac: SV: 86 points, OH: 88 points." With certificate of authenticity.
