Pure History, Beyond Luxury

The Reach by The Macallan, an extraordinarily rare whisky that was distilled in 1940.

- 

The Whisky-loving world invariably sits up and takes note with every new creation that The Macallan sends to market. In the case of The Reach – the oldest expression released by the brand to date – desire has been clamorous and expectation, at fever pitch.

Distilled in 1940, The Reach promises to be something very special indeed, and as appealing to aficionados of The Macallan’s exemplary ‘body of work’ as it will be to those who favour slightly different profiles.

Crafted from a single sherry-seasoned cask, The Reach was envisioned and distilled in the early days of World War II. It was a time of turbulence and uncertainty and the people at The Macallan must have recognised the imperative of legacy and posterity. This in itself is a testament to the spirit of adventure and the indefatigable spirit of the Scottish people – characteristics that are continuously associated with The Macallan, one of the most recognisable and respected distillers of fine single malts on the planet.
