World’s Most Expensive Whisky 18th November 2023

£2.2m Highest auction price paid at Sotheby’s in London £2.2m for a 1926 Macallan Scotch Whisky bottled in 1986 after being aged in sherry casks for 60 years. Just forty bottles were produced.

Sadly we will not be sampling this at one of the future whisky tastings at Yorick Lodge – Metropolitan Whisky Lodge due to the treasure informing us that Lodge funds do not stretch to £2.2 Million but you can get closer to the character and history of this bottle by reading the full story of its inception, distilling, bottling and unique label design.
