Description
Gordon & MacPhail helped Macallan survive during the 1930s and 1940s by buying regular batch's of stock, which in turn allowed them to release a lot of these special Macallan bottlings to the Italian market.
These "Macallan-Glenlivet" labels were introduced in the 1950s and could be considered the first official label. Gordon & MacPhail began to use them in the 1960s for Donini. This flashier 40 year old iteration was bottled in the later 1970s for subsequent distributors, Co. Import, Pinerolo.
