Celebrating the combined expertise of Whiskey Maker Polly Logan and the Roca brothers who own El Cellar de Can Roca, this limited edition of just 1000 bottles distills the essence of this iconic city.
AROMA
Baked apples and raisins, chocolate covered nuts, maple syrup and toasted waffles with salted pecans as a side dish.
TASTE
Apple with peanut crust and milk chocolate. A sweet and salty mixture like a risen dough and a withered of pavement, fresh rain and cherry blossoms
"We were really looking for the typical flavors of New York - sweet candy, waffles, peanut brittle, chocolate and pecans. The city's thriving street food scene was a big source of inspiration."

New York is part of The Macallan's "Distill Your World Series" where the previous one was " Distill Your World London Edition " and the next in the series should be " Distill Your World Madrid Edition".
