Monkey Shoulder Competitors

Creating the finest single malt is a dedication that has shaped our history, informs our future and inspires us to choose the risks worth taking. The Macallan was one of the first distillers in Scotland to be legally licensed. Since then we have built a reputation as one of the world’s leading single malt whiskies. The creation of The Macallan draws on the vital contributing influences of Spain, North America and Scotland - and of their respective natural raw materials, combined with traditional methods and craftsmanship. The posts on this page are intended for people of legal purchase age for alcohol. Crafted without compromise. Please savour The Macallan responsibly.

Rich in tradition, Johnnie Walker™ came about almost 200 years ago when John ‘Johnnie’ Walker first sold whisky from his grocery shop in Kilmarnock, Scotland. In 1860, the iconic square bottle hit the shelves thanks to John’s son Alexander. And in 1877, the slanted label was added, making Walker’s Old Highland whisky highly recognisable the world over. The Walker brothers renamed their whiskies in deference to their customers’ habit of identifying them by their coloured labels in 1909. And today, you can choose from five unique blends to suit any moment, and no matter which you choose, you can be assured of the consistency and quality of flavour that’s kept us walking for almost 200 years.

Few families have built their own distillery with their own bare hands but that’s exactly how William Grant, with the help of his two daughters and seven sons started writing our story.
