While on vacation in Canada last July I picked up a bottle of Macallan 10yo Cask Strength at the duty free. I was already a big fan of Macallan, regarding the standard 10yo as one of my top 3. But this bottle has raised my bar another notch. I consider this the benchmark for wine wood finished single malts.

Trouble is, I'm almost out and I don't know where to get more

That Cask Strength is gooooood stuff. And $39.95 is a great price.

The Macallan Cask Strength is one of the few high-proof Scotches I find needs a drop of added water to show at its best, as it bites just a tad too much (even to my relatively seasoned palate) when poured as is.

That said, it does make for a tasty dram!

I'm a fan of cask strength and would also recommend the Oban 32 and Glenfarclas.... the former could just be my favorite scotch period.

And it does indeed need just a wee dram of water....

Do you have a direct link? It looks like I can only find it on their site at $45, which is still reasonable.

E-mail sent. The website doesn't show the sale price to me either. If I remember from the last time I ordered one of their monthly special they automatically charges the sale price.

Are there certain states that they won't ship to? I can't find it on the site.
