The Macallan Carta Nautica 1987 Highland Single Malt Scotch

The Macallan Carta Nautica represents an extraordinary journey through time and geography, with this exceptional 1987 vintage being one of only 600 bottles ever produced. This Highland single malt tells the story of epic transatlantic voyages, having begun its maturation in the finest oak casks seasoned by sherry wine from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, before being transferred to casks that previously held bourbon from America to complete its remarkable journey.

At natural color and bottled at 45.2% ABV, this whisky delivers a complex sensory experience with tropical pineapple, creamy vanilla, and delicate rose notes. The palate reveals layers of antique oak with orange oil, berry compote, and lingering wood spice, culminating in a finish marked by charred pineapple, leather, and sweet tarte au citron. The nose showcases caramelized peaches and rich oak alongside tropical pineapple, with touches of rose and pink grapefruit adding elegance to this nearly four-decade-old expression.
