Skene Scotch Whisky has just released a Skene Reserve Macallan 1989 30 Year Old, which was drawn from 1st fill Oloroso single cask 152034.   This naturally dark beauty was distilled in May 1989 and bottled in September 2019, at the cask strength of 43.2 percent ABV.

The cask yielded only around 100 bottles.   Some of this whisky went to Japan.   Skene Scotch Whisky retained the remainder of the whisky in glass in bond, with the plan of releasing it in new super-premium packaging.  

However, because of many, many challenges with suppliers before and through the pandemic, the company thought it better to bottle now using the same bottles and boxes as used for previous Macallan bottlings.   This has enabled Skene Scotch Whisky to offer this sherried Macallan 30 Year Old for the price of just £1,480 for a 70cl bottle.
