About this lot

The Macallan Anniversary Malt 25 Year Old — 1972 Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky · 75cl · 43% Vol · Distilled 1972, Bottled 1998 · Original wooden crate with leather straps A classic vintage-dated release from Macallan’s celebrated Anniversary Malt series, distilled in 1972 and bottled in 1998. Presented in the original “Over 25 Years Old” pinewood crate secured with the distinctive leather straps — the packaging that defined luxury whisky presentation and marked the “OG” era of single malt collecting. Matured exclusively in sherry casks at the Easter Elchies estate in Speyside, this is Macallan’s classic sherried style: rich dried fruit, orange, nutmeg and oak. The Anniversary Malts are prized for carrying both a vintage and an age statement — an increasingly scarce combination — and remain among the most collected expressions the distillery has produced. This example presents with an excellent into-the-neck fill level, intact gold capsule and clean labels, complete with its original crate and both straps. Distilled and bottled by The Macallan Distillers Ltd, Craigellachie, Scotland.

Specialist · Whisky / Bourbon

Raised in Portugal and educated in the United States, André has spent two decades moving between cultures, languages and cellars. His passion for fine wine and spirits began with the great Ports and table wines of his home country and grew into a wider fascination with the craft, history and provenance behind every great bottle. When he isn’t tasting or sourcing, he can be found driving the back roads of Europe in search of small producers and the stories behind their labels.
