A discontinued classic
Before Macallan introduced its Fine Oak series, the 30 year old Sherry Oak was presented in a classic blue livery. That bottling has been discontinued and is now sought after by collectors.
The whisky
Three decades exclusively in sherry casks give a dense, dark profile. The Whisky Exchange's notes point to dark chocolate truffles, coffee and walnut cake, raisins and candied ginger.
Serving
If you open it, pour neat in a small glass and give it time. Older bottles may show some natural sediment.
Frequently asked
Is this the same as the current 30 Sherry Oak?
No. It is an older, discontinued bottling in Macallan's earlier blue presentation. The current 30 Sherry Oak comes in Macallan's present-day design.
