Macallan Classic Cut 2022 – and release date
It’s been a long time coming, but the new release of the Macallan Classic Cut series is finally confirmed. There were rumours that the series has ended, however, this series might run indefinitely just like the Folio one.
Bottled at 52.5%, this latest addition is sure to please whisky lovers around the world. A few bottles have already started appearing at ad-hoc auctions sites like catawiki, but the official announcement from Macallan is still forthcoming.
In the meantime, we’ll just have to enjoy the speculation and anticipation that comes with a new release from one of the world’s most revered whisky producers.
With this news one can only wonder what will happen with the first ones, this is a decent ABV and great tasting bottle, if Macallan does 20 in this set I would keep an eye on the first ones – some are going at auction for 1500 or more.
The bottle will be announced shortly by Macallan (june/july 2022) and it will be available on their site and retailers.
