The Edition No4 release celebrates the opening of the new distillery opened in June 2018 and the foundation of this Macallan is first fill European oak Sherry seasoned casks.
A combination of aged stock from both European and American Sherry seasoned oak from 1st and 2nd fill Butts 42% Hogsheads 40% and Puncheons 18%.
“A truly spectacular single malt, delivering a rounded honey and sweet toffee aroma and an intense burst of nutmeg wood spices on the palate. A powerful and invigorating mouth feel, as if standing on top of the new distillery roof in the Speyside breeze. A combination of carefully selected Sherry-seasoned oak casks brings out unique refreshing qualities and delivers an unforgettable whisky experience”
Nick Savage (Macallan Master Distiller)
The new bottling is designed to showcase the ‘structure’ of Macallan’s whisky, following Edition No 1 and No 2 – focused on cask influence – and Edition No 3, which explored the impact of aroma.
