Macallan Private Eye - 40% 70cl + 5cl Miniature

Macallan Private Eye is arguably one of the most iconic and collectable bottles of Macallan whisky.

An impressive bottle considering it was only released in 1996, has no age statement and was released as a limited edition run of five thousand bottles.

The iconic illustrated label was designed by the famous illustrator (and whisky lover!) Ralph Steadman. Steadman’s art style is unmistakable, and although he is best known for his political caricatures.

He has also illustrated and written many children’s books as well as countless other award-winning projects.

The history, design and of course the excellent whisky inside mean this continues to be a hugely collectible Macallan.

Bottle includes 5cl miniature. 

The colour of the whisky is incredible and points to it, containing a LOT of fresh sherry influence. The rear label doesn’t give too much away sadly. 

All it tells us is that the whisky was bottled at 40% and that there is at least one 1961 cask in the mix.
