The Macallan Boutique Collection 2019 is a limited edition release, commemorating the inauguration of the first Macallan Boutique. This distinguished whisky was matured in an exquisite blend of both European and American sherry-seasoned oak casks, culminating in a rich and fruity flavor profile with subtle undertones of ginger. Drawn from a selection of meticulously matured casks, it was originally reserved for special guests at Easter Elchies House, the spiritual home of Macallan. This 2019 edition is an exclusive offering, available solely at Macallan Boutiques and select travel retail outlets in airports located in London, Dubai, and Taipei.
The Macallan, established in 1824, has garnered acclaim for producing luxury single malt whiskies, particularly those sherry-matured vintage singles from the 1960s and 1970s. The Boutique Collection represents the third installment in a limited edition series, each bottle sourced from a handpicked number of maturing casks and available exclusively at the Macallan Distillery Boutique and Macallan Airport Boutiques.
This 2019 release presents a beautifully crafted dram with notes of sweet dried fruits, ginger, toffee, and oak spices. Created to celebrate the launch of The Macallan Boutique programme, it spent its maturation period in both American and European oak sherry-seasoned casks, resulting in a complex and opulent flavor profile. Owning this bottle offers a unique opportunity to possess a piece of Macallan's storied history and experience the unparalleled quality and craftsmanship for which the distillery is renowned.
