This is a distinctive whisky that pushes the boundaries of the distillerys innovation, reflecting the passion, traditions and craftsmanship that goes into the art of the perfect cask selection.

The series began with The Macallan Edition No. 1, a bold single malt drawn from eight of the finest European and American oak cask styles and sizes. Sherry-seasoned and aged to perfection before being combined to create this rich and multidimensional whisky, the character of each cask style lives within the whisky itself.

The Macallan Edition No. 2 was a creative collaboration between the Macallans master whisky maker and the three Roca brothers – co-founders of world-renowned restaurant, El Celler de Can Roca – Edition No. 2 unites these four masters in one spirit, combining flavours to reflect each of their distinctive personalities in the resulting whisky.

Edition No. 3 brings to life the flavour experience of The Macallan through aroma, calling on Master Perfumer Roja Doves remarkable sensory knowledge and expert sense of smell to create the third unique expression in the series. Borne of two art forms, Edition No. 3 unites the worlds of whisky and aroma to reveal the complexities of single malt character and the power of the senses in creating and experiencing The Macallan.

Drawn from a combination of European and American oak casks, Edition No.3 is sweet and fruity in character, balancing the heavier base recognisable in our single malts with citrus, vanilla, florals and fresh cut oak.
