The Macallan has unveiled a new, highly limited-edition single malt whisky: The Macallan 52 years old 2018. The Macallan 52 years old will be limited to 42 bottles in the US market this year, with a suggested retail price of approximately $53,500 USD per 750ml bottle.

This latest addition to The Macallan collection has been slowly matured for fifty-two years in one exceptional, hand crafted first fill European oak sherry seasoned cask from Spain. Defined by an unwavering pledge to create peerless single malts, this whisky reflects the unrivaled commitment to the mastery of wood and spirit for which The Macallan has been renowned since its inception.

Sarah Burgess, The Macallan whisky maker, said: “After being left to mature for fifty-two long years in one exceptional, hand crafted European oak sherry seasoned cask, this wonderfully rare single malt is full of rich spicy flavors and has a beautiful ruby mahogany natural color. Bottled at an ABV of 48% where all the flavors became perfectly balanced, The Macallan 52 years old is an outstanding addition to our expanding range of unique, classic-aged whiskies and is a testament to the harmony created through the mastery of wood and spirit. With only 250 individually numbered bottles available worldwide, this is a highly limited and expertly crafted release which will be desired by the world’s whisky lovers and luxury connoisseurs.”
