Aberdeenshire hotel to sell whisky for £8,000 a nip

Meldrum Country House Hotel

ABERDEENSHIRE’S Meldrum Country House Hotel is the place to be to try an 81-year-old whisky…but it will set you back more than £8,000.

The hotel acquired The Reach by The Macallan to home in its Cave Bar, and is just the second bar in the country to stock the whisky, alongside a venue in Gleneagles.

The spirit has been maturing since the Second World War, with only 288 bottles available worldwide.

“It’s not every day you can put a whisky like this for sale in your Bar so it took a lot of thought and planning,” said Meldrum House managing director Jordan Charles.
