Macallan Art Is The Flower - 700ml

Matured in sherry seasoned European oak casks expressing notes of raisin and fig, polished oak, cherry, almonds, orange and treacle.

This art collaboration explores nature and its power to inspire. The inspiration for these beautiful releases is the world renowned Scottish architect, designer and artist Charles Rennie Mackintosh. His unique style continues to influence artisans and global projects today.

“As whisky makers for The Macallan we need to be incredibly familiar with the inventory we hold in our warehouses, drawing upon those that have reached their peak maturation and the freedom to work with our entire inventory really adds to the character and complexity. European oak was key as it delivers beautiful oak notes, spices and dried fruit, but crucially delicate notes of fruits that bear their own blossoms, which provided a link with Mackintosh and his inspiration.”

Nose: Rich dried fruits; raisins and fig, polished oak, cherry, orange, almonds and treacle.

Palate: Sweet oak, raisins, vanilla and ginger, apple and a wisp of leaf tea.
