Description
Macallan 18 Year Old 1995 Release Sherry Oak 70cl, 43% is the 1995 vintage edition of Macallan’s iconic 18 Year Old Sherry Oak, bottled at 43% ABV in 70cl format. Your current listing presents it as a rich, smooth single malt matured in sherry oak casks from Jerez, while auction references place it firmly within the classic annual Sherry Oak release style that helped define mature modern Macallan.
This is a bottle that speaks to collectors and drinkers who appreciate the older, polished Macallan style. Rather than relying on cask strength or experimental finishes, it delivers the traditional appeal that made the range famous: sherried depth, layered fruit, spice, elegant oak, and the unmistakable prestige of a vintage-marked Macallan 18 release.
