The Macallan Edition No. 2 is a limited edition single malt whisky, bottled in 2017, representing the second release in the renowned Edition series by Macallan. This expression is a result of a unique collaboration between Bob Dalgarno, Macallan's esteemed master blender, and the Roca Brothers, the celebrated chefs and owners of the world-famous El Celler de Can Roca restaurant in Girona, Spain—twice named the best restaurant in the world by Restaurant magazine.
The distinctive and dynamic character of Edition No. 2 has been meticulously crafted through the use of seven exceptional oak cask types sourced from four different bodegas. The whisky has been matured in a harmonious blend of 1st fill Jose Martin casks, 1st and 2nd fill Diego Martin casks, 1st and 2nd fill Vasyma American puncheons, and 1st fill Tevasa casks. Each cask type was hand-selected by the collaborators to reflect their unique personalities and creative spirits, resulting in a remarkably rich and complex whisky.
The Tevasa casks, chosen by Bob Dalgarno, impart dried fruit and sherry notes. The Jose Miguel Martin casks, selected by Sommelier Josep Roca, introduce spicy ginger flavors. The Diego Martin casks, chosen by head chef Joan Roca, bring rich greenwood and toffee flavors, while the Vasyma American oak casks, selected by pastry chef Jordi Roca, add light vanilla and citrus notes. These diverse flavors converge in Edition No. 2, forming rich layers of warmth and complexity.
This whisky is not only a collectible limited edition but also a treasured addition to any whisky collection. It showcases the artistry of whisky making and the innovation of its collaborators. With its complex flavors and distinctive character, the Macallan Edition No. 2 is sure to be cherished by whisky lovers and collectors alike.
