All hail The Marketing Man. The limited 2026 release of 'The Marketing Malt' from Decadent Drinks is here, and he has arrived with impressive sales patter, a suspiciously large expenses claim, and two first-fill sherry hogsheads of undisclosed Macallan to his name.
Distilled in 2008 and matured for 17 years in two first-fill sherry hogsheads before being married and bottled by Decadent Drinks at a robust 57.1% ABV, the whisky itself is no joke. Rich, full-bodied, and deeply sherried, this is a seriously impressive independent bottling of undisclosed Speyside provenance — the kind of dram that speaks for itself, long after the PowerPoint presentation has ended.
A limited release for collectors, whisky enthusiasts, and anyone who has ever sat through a brand activation event they'll never get back.
Colour
Deep amber, rich and full from 17 years in first-fill sherry hogsheads.
Nose
Rich and indulgent, with dark dried fruit, raisin, and sherry sweetness, layered with dark chocolate, toasted oak, and warming spice.
Palate
Bold and full at 57.1% ABV, opening with stewed fruit and rich sherry sweetness, developing into notes of cinnamon, clove, espresso, and a firm, satisfying oak backbone.
Finish
Long, warming, and deeply spiced, with lingering dried fruit and a final note of dark chocolate oak.
