    THE YEAR THAT WAS

    1985

    Ronald Reagan is sworn in for a second term as US President, while Mikhail Gorbachov becomes Secretary General of the Soviet Communist Party. Live Aid concerts in London and New York raise over £50 million for famine relief. ‘Amadeus’ wins Best Picture at the Oscars, DNA is used in a criminal case for the first time, and the wreck of the RMS Titanic is finally located.

    THE EXPERIENCE

    The Macallan fine and rare whisky bottle

    Colour

    Dark Mahogany
    The Macallan continues to demonstrate its appeal to collectors with its inspired partnerships with other premium brands such as Lalique. However, its reputation for outstanding quality, innovation and exclusivity across its entire range is truly international and is arguably no better illustrated than with the Fine & Rare Collection. Indeed, the continued pre-eminence of The Macallan at auction is underlined by the remarkable prices achieved for The Macallan 1926 60 year old.
