    This highly desirable Macallan Fine & Rare 1965 was distilled in 1965 and matured for an impressive 36 years in sherry-seasoned oak casks before being bottled in 2002. It forms part of The Macallan Fine & Rare Collection, one of the most prestigious and long-running vintage series in Scotch whisky, showcasing individually selected casks that represent the distillery’s heritage, rarity, and long-term maturation expertise. The Fine & Rare range is renowned for its strict cask selection, limited releases, and hand-bottling, with each expression presented as a snapshot of Macallan’s production style from a specific era. Bottlings from the 1960s are particularly sought after, reflecting a period now regarded as a golden age of sherry cask maturation at the distillery. As a result of its age, vintage, and inclusion in this iconic collection, the 1965 Fine & Rare stands as a genuinely rare and highly collectable bottle, prized by serious collectors and investors worldwide.

    Macallan

    Founded in 1824 by Alexander Reid, the Elchies Distillery as it was known initially, did not become the Macallan-Glenlivet in name until 1892. Since then, it has undergone massive expansion with Edrington and William Grant & Sons combining forces in 1999 to purchase Highland Distillers for £601 million. By then, the reputation of the distillery for its sherry-led style of whisky was already firmly in place. The new ownership model has enabled the distillery to produce new ranges, reach out to new demographics and establish itself as an international brand of quality. Bottles are Macallan are increasingly sought after for their commodity value and not the contents, which often are of high quality. Moving to a new distillery site in recent years, will in the long-term, allow Macallan to produce more and if needed, the old distillery sits idle despite being capable of producing 11 million litres before it closed in 2018.
