The Macallan Carta Nautica 1987 – 38 Years Old

An exceptional single malt shaped by a remarkable transatlantic journey.

The Macallan Carta Nautica Distilled in 1987 is a rare release that combines decades of maturation with an extraordinary cask journey. This distinguished Speyside single malt began its maturation in sherry-seasoned oak casks from Jerez, Spain, before continuing its journey in casks that previously held bourbon from North America.

After 38 years of maturation, it reveals an elegant and complex character. Creamy vanilla and caramelised peach are complemented by ripe nectarine, tropical pineapple and delicate floral notes. The palate develops layers of antique oak, orange oil and berry compote, with hints of leather and charred pineapple. Its long, refined finish leaves lingering wood spice and sweet sultanas.

The distinctive presentation reflects the collection’s maritime inspiration and the remarkable journey of the oak casks across the Atlantic. Limited to just 600 bottles worldwide, this exceptional Macallan is a highly collectible release for discerning whisky enthusiasts and collectors.
