Macallan Edition No. 1 Limited Edition with Wooden Box 70cl

The Edition Series

A unique selection of oak cask styles are combined to yield a new limited edition expression each year. In this first release, a taste journey begins with soft oak notes and evolves to deeper, richer flavours.

The Macallan Edition No. 1

DEEP AND RICH

The Macallan Edition No. 1 is the debut expression in the Edition Series. It celebrates The Macallan’s unparalleled oak cask management policy that oversees the entire process from wood sourcing to finished, seasoned, cask.

Showcasing the influence of The Macallan’s exceptional oak casks in the flavour of the whisky, the result is a bold single malt drawn from eight of the finest European and American oak cask styles and sizes.

Given the stellar reputation Macallan have cultivated over the years, they’d probably be forgiven for resting on their laurels and adopting an attitude of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. The Edition Series confirms that very much isn’t the case, with its willingness to look beyond the traditional cask types favoured by the distillery. Each of the six expressions is crafted from a unique combination of casks selected to push the boundaries of what whisky drinkers have come to expect from Macallan.
