About The Macallan
Situated on a ridge above the banks of the River Spey, the Easter Elchies House has been the spiritual home of The Macallan for over three centuries. In 1820, Alexander Reid sowed the fields surrounding the rented home with barley and established the first licensed distillery on the estate, which he named Macallan after an ancient church that had been destroyed by fire during the 15th century. In the slow winter days, Reid would ferment and distill his excess grains into whisky, which was often drunk straight from the still or sold to travelers passing through the town.
Today, the Macallan Estate encompasses 370 acres, 95 of which are devoted to the production of the Macallan Estate’s Minstrel barley (a single acre produces about 2.5 tons of barley each year, enough to yield 1,800 bottles of The Macallan). In addition, the distillery contracts with farmers to purchase barley that is low in nitrogen and high in starch, resulting in a rich and oily whisky.
After the harvest, the barley is malted and mashed in one of The Macallan’s two mash tuns, a process that takes between four and eight hours. Then, the barley is fermented with a specially cultured yeast before being distilled twice through The Macallan’s copper-pot stills. The copper comprising the stills acts as a catalyst and enhances the formation of sweet esters while minimizing impurities such as sulfur. In addition, the curiously small stills — some of “the smallest stills within the Scotch whisky industry,” according to production manager Alexander Tweedie — produce a whisky with a heavy, oily flavor. Following distillation, The Macallan distillers remove the heads and tails of the whisky and collect approximately 16% of the spirit to fill into casks for maturation. This “cut,” which is among the highest of any Scottish distillery, results in a more full-bodied and richer whisky.
About Scotch
Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)
Tasting Notes
Creamy butterscotch aromas, and subtle toffee apple, citrus, vanilla and fresh oak. The palate is honeyed, with oak spice and citrus, harmonized with dried fruit and caramel. The finish is lingering, warm, sweet and drying with oak.

Great place always has everything in stock. Cashiers could be a bit more friendly.
William (verified owner) –
I was fully prepared to not buy into the hype, but this is a very good bourbon and a decent value price point. Full-flavored, rich, and easy to drink. I’d like to keep a bottle in my cabinet.

Nicely balanced, a quintessential bourbon. One of my go-tos. Getting harder to find!
Lucas (verified owner) –
Good for booze and better priced than a lot of liquor shops. Good selection too. The only reason they get 4 stars is because their cashiers are always grumpy.
Rolando (verified owner) –
Good service.
Anibal (verified owner) –
Huge selection of any alcohol, reasonable prices, long opening hours, but not very friendly employees.
Owen (verified owner) –
My father in law searches high and low for this (and Blanton’s) each time it comes in stock locally. He very rarely gets his hands on it so I thought I’d try this site out so I can get him some for Christmas. It arrived in a little over a week, and was packaged phenomenally and there were no issues. I can’t wait to gift it to him!

Never seen such a huge store in NJ. You name it and you get it.

I’m not one to refrigerate my bourbon, preferring a room temperature shot from time to time. The first notes of Noah’s were wonderful. There was a soft heat and the fruity notes were lovely. As time went on and we got closer to the bottom of the bottle, it heated. Harshly. We are not aficionados and perhaps didn’t treat this whiskey quite right, but that last shot was really tough. I might take to refrigerating in the future …
