The Macallan 50 years old was created at a time when the distillery had the future in mind. By increasing the number of curiously small stills that helped to concentrate the new make spirit, the foundations were established that ensure the full-bodied, rich and fruity flavours and characteristic of The Macallan today.

Laid down in handcrafted European oak sherry seasoned casks from Spain, this new make spirit was then left to mature slowly and quietly for at least 50 long years.
