The new River Spey edition follows that lead with beautiful results. Inspired by the 1.5-mile stretch of waterway that winds through the Estate, the distillery collaborated with artist Michelle Lucking to produce awe-inspiring packaging that rivals the whisky. Lucking used naturally pigmented pastels to create six paintings of the River Spey, capturing the movement of the river and how light reflects off its surface. Matured in a combination of sherry seasoned European oak casks, sherry seasoned American oak casks, and refill casks, The Macallan Home Collection River Spey offers rich raisin, cinnamon, and pear aromas, alongside notes of apple, oak, and vanilla. The palate delivers velvety butterscotch, toasted oak, chocolate and nutmeg with a hint of anise. The medium finish is filled with toasted oak and spice.
