Speymalt Macallan 1973
70cl
Aged entirely in Sherry casks (1st fill and refill), this is classic old style Macallan with rich fruit cake, spicy oak and stewed prune flavours. The Speymalt range is a semi-official series of Macallan single malt from Gordon and Macphail bottlers. Compared to official bottlings these represent very good value for money.
