- Description
- Sandy Macdonald, a blended Scotch bottled in the 1960s at 43% abv, captures a bygone era of Scottish whisky production now defunct. The exact composition remains unknown, but typical blends of this era balanced grain whisky smoothness with malt complexity and subtle smoke. A collectible piece of whisky history rather than a modern benchmark. For collectors and those interested in pre-1970s Scotch character.
