Macallan 18 Year Old Colour Collection (2023) 70cl

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.

The Macallan Colour Collection 18 Years Old is a whisky with an inviting, light auburn hue: a Natural Colour developed during almost two decades of the whisky interacting with its Sherry Seasoned oak cask. Inspired by the vibrant warmth of the evening sun over the pale terroir of Jerez de la Frontera, the packaging’s colours have been carefully chosen to complement the light auburn tone of the whisky within.

Situated alongside the vast Atlantic Ocean, Jerez is a captivating region known for its scorching summers, enduring vineyards, and exquisite wines. It is here that The Macallan carefully seasons their oak casks using top-quality sherry, an essential element in crafting exceptional single malt whisky with a remarkably rich and vibrant natural colour.
