COLOUR COLLECTION 12 YEARS OLD
The Collection is a celebration of The Macallan’s commitment to Natural Colour and Sherry Seasoning. The Colour Collection 12 Years Old presents a single malt whisky which has been matured in American oak casks, harmoniously complemented with a subtle inclusion from European oak.
DESCRIPTION PRODUCT INFORMATION
The oak casks used for The Macallan Colour Collection 12 Years Old are seasoned with sherry wine from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. The youngest whisky in the Collection and the age statement with the lightest Natural Colour, this exceptional single malt exhibits a golden oak hue, with tasting notes of sweet oak, lemon and vanilla.
THE COLOURS OF JEREZ
With lemon yellow, drips of chalky white, “albero” and “teja”, and a branch from a sherry grape vine, we are transported to the strikingly pale terroir of Jerez de la Frontera.
We collaborated with Artist and Graphic Designer, David Carson for The Colour Collection. He used albariza soil as a medium, applying it to the paper as if it were paint. Beside the 12 Years Old, we see Easter Elchies House, an emblem of the Spiritual Home of The Macallan in Speyside, Scotland.
COLOUR COLLECTION 15 YEARS OLD
The Collection is a celebration of The Macallan’s commitment to Natural Colour and Sherry Seasoning. The Colour Collection 15 Years Old showcases whisky that has been aged in American oak casks, perfectly complemented by a subtle addition of European oak.
DESCRIPTION PRODUCT INFORMATION
The oak casks used for The Macallan Colour Collection 15 Years Old are seasoned with sherry wine from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.
With flavours of citrus, vanilla and baked peaches, the whisky is a natural beech colour – the outcome of our new make spirit and exceptional oak casks working harmoniously together over the years.
THE COLOURS OF JEREZ
Warmth emanates through this piece, from the soft orange brushstrokes evoking the orchards of Jerez de la Frontera – echoed in the shade of the wave pattern designed by Artist and Graphic Designer David Carson to the repetition of the bottle and the whisky inside.
This composition, with its dense collage of sliced and ripped forms and typography, is quintessential David Carson, who transformed the graphic design industry by rejecting the notion that text and images should be placed within a specified grid.
COLOUR COLLECTION 18 YEARS OLD
The Collection is a celebration of The Macallan’s commitment to Natural Colour and Sherry Seasoning. The Colour Collection 18 Years Old offers a whisky that has undergone maturation in American oak casks, enhanced by a delicate touch of European oak.
DESCRIPTION PRODUCT INFORMATION
The oak casks used for The Macallan Colour Collection 18 Years Old are seasoned with sherry wine from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.
With flavours of vanilla, milk chocolate, orange and honeycomb, the whisky is a natural, auburn colour – the outcome of our new make spirit and exceptional oak casks working harmoniously together over the years.
THE COLOURS OF JEREZ
During 18 years of patient maturation, the whisky has drawn out the flavours of the cask: the lemon citrus and vanilla of the American oak, the notes of dried fruits, spices and orange citrus from the European oak, and the almonds, toffee, dried fruit, and hint of spice of the sherry seasoning. The result is a sweet and citric flavour profile with dominant notes of sweet oak, clementine and honeycomb.
Artist and Graphic Designer David Carson captures the warmth of the evening sun as it shines on the “teja” tiles on the roofs of the bodegas in Jerez de la Frontera, against a backdrop of vineyards with chalk-white soil – the perfect environment to enjoy a dram of The Macallan.

With flavours of tropical fruits, coffee, hazelnuts and dark chocolate orange, the whisky is a natural, warm bronze colour – the outcome of our new make spirit and exceptional oak casks working harmoniously together over the years.
THE COLOURS OF JEREZ
Artist and Graphic Designer David Carson has brought the influence of the cask to the fore through an array of rich brown tones that evoke the wood and its toasted, caramel flavours, with a hint of spice.
In this organic yet balanced composition, colours, pattern and textures juxtapose each other, creating a sense of the whisky’s complex yet balanced profile.
Amongst the splashes of colour, we can pick out chocolate browns, orange and reddish brown hues that reflect the whisky’s tasting notes of warm spice, vanilla pods and chocolate orange, and a bright yellow reminiscent of the notes of cardamom and candied ginger it leaves on the palate.
COLOUR COLLECTION 30 YEARS OLD
The Collection is a celebration of The Macallan’s commitment to Natural Colour and Sherry Seasoning. The Colour Collection 30 Years Old has undergone maturation in American oak casks, beautifully accompanied by a delicate touch of European oak.

THE COLOURS OF JEREZ
Years of maturation in our exceptional oak casks has created a deep flavour profile of wood spice, tropical fruit and crème brûlée that Artist and Graphic Designer David Carson has rendered with juxtaposed cutouts of wood grain, stippled orange paint, and zesty yellow brushstrokes.
In the foreground, the 30 Years Old stands resplendent, crowned by a burgundy cap that hints at the influence of wine in this age statement, and across the Colour Collection.

Macallan 30 Year Old Double Cask 2021 (70cl, 43%)
In stock
The oldest Macallan Double Cask ever released, this superbly elegant Speyside malt spent 30 years in American and Spanish oak sherry casks prior to bottling. Even at this age, there’s still fresh fruit to be found in this old Speysider with vivid russet apple, plum and fig on the nose. The palate shows cinnamon, raisins, and rich vanilla that give way to a long finish of toffee and sweet oak spice.
Edrington has added another ultra-premium extension to The Macallan’s portfolio, this time unveiling a 30-year-old single malt Scotch whisky.
Sitting in the brand’s ‘Double Cask’ series, the single malt consists of liquid matured in both Sherry-seasoned American and European oak casks. The Macallan Double Cask 30 Years Old joins the ‘gold’, 12-, 15- and 18-year-old expressions in the series.
The Macallan Double Cask 30 Years Old, aged for thirty years in a harmonious union of American and European oak sherry seasoned casks, to create a unique taste and character.
Acclaimed photographer and artist Erik Madigan Heck was inspired by nature and the landscape of The Macallan Estate when capturing the complex flavour of The Macallan Double Cask 30 Years Old.
The whisky itself is a rich and luxurious medley of flavour, and Erik Madigan Heck used natural light to capture this depth of character in his still life. The reflective surface enhances the idea of flavours blending– almost as if seamlessly merging together as one – with the soft focus echoing the long-lasting taste experience.
The whisky’s golden acorn natural colour is the focal point of the shot. Its rich tone and translucent glow has influenced the colour palette of the piece as a whole, with the soft caramels and browns and pops of red and green once more showcasing the depth of its flavour profile.

Sourced, crafted, toasted and seasoned under the watchful eye of the Master of Wood, the hand-picked casks are delivered to the demanding specifications of the Whisky Mastery Team. It is the oak that makes the greatest contribution to the quality, natural colour and distinctive aromas and flavours at the heart of this single malt whisky.
Once filled, the maturing spirit remains undisturbed in the same casks for the necessary number of years it needs to be worthy of its destined Macallan expression. It is these oak casks that make the greatest contribution to the quality, natural colour and distinctive aromas and flavours which lie at the heart of The Macallan single malt.

Macallan Sir Peter Blake An Estate, A Community, and A Distillery (70cl, 47.7%)
In stock
The Macallan has unveiled the Anecdotes of Ages Collection, an extraordinary art and whisky collaboration with globally renowned British pop artist, Sir Peter Blake.
The collaboration, which is The Macallan’s third with the iconic artist and is part of a relationship which has spanned more than three decades, celebrates The Macallan’s rich legacy and Sir Peter Blake’s remarkable contribution to the art world.
At the heart of the esteemed collection are 13 one-of-a-kind bottles of exceptional 1967 whisky. Classic but with a distinctly colourful character, this peerless single malt Scotch has been matured for more than 50 years and was carefully selected to represent the year that Sir Peter Blake’s signature collages transcended from art into popular culture.
Each individual bottle features its own original Sir Peter Blake collage art on the label, detailing unique stories relating to The Macallan’s history, community, and the beautiful natural landscape of The Macallan Estate.
Pioneering pop artist Sir Peter Blake is renowned for his highly distinctive collages featuring images from popular culture. His diverse style ranges from colourful lettering to likeness drawing, but he remains best known for his signature crowd work. Over many decades, his unique and timeless style has transcended fashion, music, and even art movements.
The long-held relationship between The Macallan and Sir Peter Blake is based on a mutual respect for craftsmanship as well as a strong desire to deliver truly creative and visionary work. In 1986 he collaborated with The Macallan to create a bespoke label for The Macallan 1926 taking inspiration from the events of the era. In 2012 The Macallan and Sir Peter Blake collaborated again to create a unique, limited edition art piece in celebration of his 80th birthday and decades of collaborating with The Macallan.
As part of The Macallan’s strong support for the arts, one of the extremely scarce 13 Anecdotes of Ages bottles is being auctioned to raise funds to benefit the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. Support from The Macallan will advance efforts underway at the Guggenheim to increase free access and develop engagement with a variety of audiences, in alignment with the museum’s diversity, equity, access, and inclusion initiatives. The sale is being conducted by Sotheby’s in March 2021.
Sir Peter Blake said: “I am deeply inspired by the incredible legacy of The Macallan, and its emphasis on family, tradition, and the natural world.
Each collage in the Anecdotes of Ages Collection is inspired by The Macallan’s history and heritage, one that respects time and craft, two essential components of my own creative process. I meticulously worked on each collage, pulling from The Macallan Estate’s rich history to complete a collection that is a celebration of art and whisky.”
Sarah Burgess, Lead Whisky Maker at The Macallan, said: “This exceptional 1967 whisky was chosen for its classic yet distinctively colourful character, which is reminiscent of Sir Peter Blake’s work of the same year. With notes of oak and fig leading to a burst of hazelnut and strawberry, this is a truly special single malt that finishes with complex flavours of chocolate and lightly spiced peach. It is in many ways, its own work of art.”
The exquisite and incredibly rare Anecdotes of Ages Collection will be sought after worldwide by whisky and art lovers alike.
Each of the 13 original bottles are hand-blown with an oak stopper, and feature a label signed by Sir Peter Blake. Presented in a handcrafted European oak case incorporating thumbnail photography revealing Sir Peter Blake’s inspirational journey with The Macallan, the expressions are also accompanied by a leather-bound book showcasing all 13 label artworks and corresponding stories, as well as a certificate of authenticity.
While the 13th original bottle will be retained in The Macallan archive, a highly limited edition whisky featuring a duplicate label and the same rare 1967 whisky, will be released as The Anecdotes of Ages Collection: Down to Work Limited Edition. Only 322 bottles will be available worldwide, from February.

Macallan Reflexion (70cl, 43%)
In stock
This exceptional single malt draws its colour and flavour from maturation in smaller hogshead casks, allowing a greater surface area of wood to interact with the whisky to deliver an intricate character influenced by both Spanish and American oak casks. The depth of colour and complex flavour of Reflexion is derived from the use of first-fill casks, carefully selected for this distinctive expression to accentuate its aromas and flavours. Bold and full bodied, Reflexion is a celebration of floral and vanilla notes, punctuated with fresh apples and apricots.

Macallan Oscuro 2015 Release 70cl, 46.5%
In stock
A beautiful, extremely limited edition Macallan released for travel retail, Oscuro is made with whisky from 1987 and 1997 and it’s sherried and incredibly rich.
This is the 2015 redesign of the packaging, now presented in the premium decanter style bottle first used for the Macallan Reflexion.
Dark, lusciously rich and satisfying. The Macallan Oscuro is drawn exclusively from oak casks seasoned with Oloroso Sherry. An exceptionally high proportion of these are first fill, which endow the whisky with a rich, deep Burnished copper colour and intense flavour. When the casks are at the peak of maturation, the whisky is gently reduced to 46.5% alcohol by volume with natural spring water drawn from boreholes deep under The Macallan Estate. It is then matured in slumbering casks for at least six months, allowing the flavours to blend. It undergoes no further strength reduction and is filtered non-chill at ambient room temperature before being bottled.
