The Macallan distillery was founded by Alexander Reid, a barley farmer and teacher. The original name of the area was 'Maghellan', which came from the Gallic word 'magh', which means fertile soil, and 'Ellan', from the monk St Fillan, which was closely related to the church that stood in the grounds of The Macallan Estate until 1400. Farmers had already been making whisky on their Speyside farms for several centuries.

This whisky was distilled in June 1993 and laid to rest in ex-Bourbon cask #7469 for 18 years before being bottled in August 2011.
One of 224 bottles.
