The Macallan used Speyside peat in the malting process from inception in 1824 through the late nineteenth century when railways brought more heat efficient fuels like coal. By the 1930’s, peat was still there, although it is only lightly discernible. But the World War years limited the supply of fossil fuels, so the peat was used again for a while; effectively disappearing in the post-war years.
The Macallan Fine and Rare Collection was referred to by the distiller as “the greatest range of vintage Single Malt ever”. It consists of a collection of 50 Fine and Rare bottles dating from 1926 to 1989, all aged for up to 60 years.
The 25 bottles distilled since 1972 were only bottled in 2002, after maturation in sherry oak casks, which give distinct flavour characteristics. They were then hand-filled from single casks, producing a total of 10,000 bottles.
