The Macallan and Sir Peter Blake
The Macallan and Sir Peter Blake collaboration tells a story of the heritage inspired by the natural beauty of the Macallan distillery, its surrounding landscape and the enigmatic characters who have guided the Macallan for almost 200 years.
Sir Peter Blake's popular art continues to be a highly influential and enduring presence in the world of art. The timeless signature style of Blake's crowd art collage is perfectly suited to visually narrate the Macallan's fascinating history of people, places and events, captured in the spectacular print included in this special edition art pack.
The Macallan whisky making team met with Sir Peter Blake who inspired the careful selection of casks, each with complementary iconic characters joining to create a complex yet perfectly balanced single malt whisky representative of the Macallan's exceptional heritage.

Macallan Classic Cut 2020 Release
It may be hard to imagine today, but for much of the 20th century, Macallan was primarily a constituent malt in blends. It was not until the 1980s downturn in the market that the distillery decided to focus on its single malt brand. Fortuitously, this coincided with the crest of a wave of enthusiasm for the high quality releases that the distillery had licensed to Campbell, Hope & King and Gordon & MacPhail in the 1960s and 1970s. These remain some of the most collectible on the market. While global single malt sales volume is still lead by Speyside neighbours, Glenfiddich and Glenlivet, Macallan is easily the most sought after. So much so in fact, that they had to open a brand new distillery in 2018, a subterranean architectural masterpiece within the Easter Elchies estate, boasting 36 copper pot stills.
This is the fourth release of the Classic Cut series, first introduced in 2017. The expression takes its name from the third of Macallan's six pillars, known as the "finest cut," in reference to their selection of only the most superior quality spirit from their stills.
The Macallan Concept Nº 2
The second release in Macallan's limited-edition Concept series, this Highland single malt brings together music and whisky - two of the passions of Macallan Whisky Maker Steven Bremner. Matured in a combination of sherry-seasoned American oak casks, ex-bourbon casks and Miguel Martin sherry casks, creating a complex character with aromas of toffee apples, vanilla, oak spice, blackberry and pistachio on the nose. The palate offers notes of dried apple, almond, cinnamon, toasted oak and sweet toffee.
