Description

This single malt celebrates the legacy of 007:

On October 5th, 1962, the first official James Bond film was shown in cinemas. The film Dr No was inspired by Ian Fleming’s spy novels and the film was a box office hit. Thus a legend was born, launching one of the world’s most successful film franchises. 

Six decades later, the fascination and love of James Bond - a cultural icon of heroic resolve - is stronger than ever. In the past sixty years there have been twenty-five official James Bond films, led by six different actors. 

The remarkable James Bond 60th Anniversary Release is a celebration of 007 and The Macallan as modern innovators linked by their Scottish heritage. Each bottle’s packaging features an original illustrative design and colour to denote the decade it represents.

Decade I

The 1960s was a singular decade for James Bond. The debut of the suave spy icon onto the silver screen in 1962 was embodied by the inimitable Sean Connery, who went on to appear in six films across the next ten years. Resting only when George Lazenby starred in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service in 1969, Sir Sean was to roar back in triumph in 1971’s Diamonds Are Forever. 

The pack design includes sketches from Goldfinger (1964), You Only Live Twice (1967) where Little Nellie is in a combat sequence, and the dummy jet pack worn by Bond in Thunderball (1965).
