Macallan's former distiller Nick Savage once drafted a "10 Macallan whiskies you must drink in this life".
The wine list includes the McAllen 72 years old at 400,000 yuan a bottle, and the Macallan 50 years old at 220,000 yuan. Let’s just take a look at this. We have to estimate that Lu Xiaobao can spend money to drink it. .
Fortunately, there are also some relatively approachable choices in the wine list, such as the Macallan 18 years we introduced (see ten million bottles of whiskey, the first bottle of Macallan) and the Rare Cask series.
However, I noticed that on his ten-bottle wine list, there is also a product that is only distributed in the airport duty-free store channel-Macallan Engima.

Duty-free shop products are also conscientious productions that can enter the top ten of the winemaker’s wine list. .

There are four whiskeys: Terra, Lumina and Quest, which focus on the fusion of American and European oak barrels, while the flagship Engima is a snow fully matured in Spain’s Jerez De La Frontera. Butt and Hogshead.
This wine does not indicate the barrel age, but it is speculated that the average age should be similar to the 18 years of Macallan, because it tastes closer, but the sweetness of the azure blue will be slightly higher.
