Description

Concept Number 1: 40%, 70cl: In 2018, Macallan released the first in their Concept series; a limited annual release celebrating bold visionaries who dare to think beyond traditional boundaries. This series joins the Rare Cask and Quest collections as a travel retail exclusive.

Number 1 is inspired by surrealist art - with the label depicting the Macallan Six Pillars in the style of surrealism - which is apparently echoed through the innovation of their slightly different maturation process in the production of this release.

Cask Type: Sherry Oak Casks followed by an equal time in Ex-Bourbon Casks

Concept Number 2: 40%, 70cl.  This is the second bottle in the series and was unveiled at the TFWA World Exhibition & Conference in Cannes, France. The series is rumoured to be of three parts after maturing the spirit in sherry and being moved into ex-bourbon casks.

Concept Number 2 is a creation by our good friend and Macallan whisky maker Steven Bremner. It revolves around his two great passions, Whisky and Music.

“Building music is in some ways the same as building whisky.

“In music, you have to lay down the base track, just like you create the base flavour in whisky, and then you build layers around them.”

Concept No. 2 has been matured in Sherry-seasoned American oak casks, Miguel Martin Sherry casks and ex-Bourbon barrels.

Concept Number 3: 40.8% ABV, 70cl

This wonderfully designed Macallan is the 3rd and final release in the Concept series. This edition brings together whisky and design through their collaboration with David Carson, a revolutionary graphic designer. The whisky itself was matured in fresh fill sherry butts and ex-bourbon barrels. Bottled at 40.8% ABV, the Macallan Concept No.3 is a fitting end to the creative series.
