Discover a distinctive piece of Macallan history with the Macallan 1990 / 13 Year Old / ESC 4 / Sherry Butt #24680 Speyside Whisky. Distilled in 1990 and matured for around 13 years, this single-cask whisky comes from Macallan’s respected Exceptional Single Cask range. It is presented in a 50cl bottle at a powerful 57.4% ABV, offering remarkable depth and an engaging cask-strength experience.

For whisky enthusiasts looking for character, provenance, and excellent value, this bottle offers an appealing alternative to larger and often more expensive releases. Rather than paying for a broad-edition blend or a modern luxury presentation, you can enjoy the individuality of one carefully selected sherry butt. The result is a whisky with a clear vintage, a defined maturation story, and a flavour profile shaped by its own cask.

Why Choose This Exceptional Single Cask Macallan?

  • 1990 vintage: A whisky with a clear distillation year and a place in Macallan’s past.
  • Around 13 years of maturation: Enough time in oak to develop character while retaining lively distillery influence.
  • Sherry butt matured: A traditional cask style associated with rich colour and generous, full-bodied flavour.
  • Cask strength at 57.4% ABV: Bottled with its natural intensity for a bold and flexible tasting experience.
  • Exceptional Single Cask range: A focused release that highlights the individuality of one cask.
  • 50cl format: A practical size for exploring a special whisky without the commitment of a full-sized bottle.

Rich, Versatile, and Ready to Explore

Sherry butt maturation gives this Macallan a naturally inviting style. Expect a whisky made for slow appreciation, with layers that become more expressive as the glass rests. Its cask-strength presentation allows you to experience the spirit in a concentrated form, while a few drops of water can soften the alcohol and reveal further detail.

The 57.4% strength also makes this bottle highly adaptable. Pour it neat for a powerful first impression, add a small amount of water to open the whisky, or serve it alongside dark chocolate, dried fruit, mature cheese, or a rich dessert. It is equally suited to a quiet evening tasting and a special occasion shared with fellow whisky lovers.

A Smart Choice for Collectors and Curious Drinkers

This is more than simply an older bottle on the shelf. The 1990 vintage, single-cask origin, sherry butt maturation, and cask-strength bottling combine to create a release with real individuality. For collectors, it offers a compact and attractive addition to a Macallan-focused selection. For newcomers to single-cask whisky, it provides an accessible way to discover what makes these releases so compelling.

The 50cl bottle is particularly appealing for anyone who wants quality and character at a more approachable cost. It gives you the opportunity to enjoy a vintage Macallan without immediately committing to the price or size of a larger collector’s bottle. That makes it a sensible choice for personal tasting, gifting, or building a varied home whisky collection.
