THE SPIRIT OF THE MACALLAN
The Macallan Estate is the whiskey producer's tribute to their heritage.
It is an extremely special single malt containing rare spirits from part of the barley grown on the Easter Elchies estate, which is distilled only once a year during a single week.
Created by Whiskey Maker Sarah Burgess, The Macallan Estate is a celebration of single malt's unrivaled provenance and heritage.
The 485 hectare Easter Elchies estate is located in the legendary Speyside region of Scotland, where The Macallan has been creating extraordinary single malts since 1824.

The meticulously tended barley fields lie on the banks of the River Spey overlooking The Macallan's new award-winning distillery. The Macallan Estate is presented in a striking gift box with a hand-cut slate panel that represents the Scottish landscape where we are at home. Inside, aerial photographs show the estate's impressive barley fields on the banks of the beautiful River Spey.
The Macallan Estate delivers a subtle touch of citrus which balances the traditional sherry-rich body, resulting in a complex single malt with an exceptionally long finish.
The Estate offers a unique opportunity to experience a rare spirit made from our precious barley grown on the estate, honoring the birthplace of every bottle of The Macallan.

Warm notes of cinnamon. Wood spice and orange oil opening to dried fruits with a sweet lemon, banana and caramel
