The Macallan has announced a collaboration with Stella and Mary McCartney, united by curiosity, respect and admiration for the natural world.
Stella and Mary have partnered with The Macallan on the creation of the third edition of The Harmony Collection – the limited annual release series which shines a spotlight on the brand’s inherent curiosity and innovative and creative mindset.
The third release in The Harmony Collection celebrates the lands of Scotland that connect all those who have stood upon them for generations.
The third instalment in the annual release series includes two distinctive expressions: The Macallan Harmony Collection Amber Meadow and Green Meadow, inspired by The McCartney sisters’ love of Scotland which stems from their memories in the Scottish countryside. To mark this deep connection with the land, the presentation boxes and bottle labels have been made using discarded meadow cuttings embracing the re-use of natural materials to create beauty from resources at the end of their lives.
The packaging of each release features photography of The Macallan Estate captured by Mary McCartney.
The Macallan Whisky Mastery Team has taken inspiration from natural Scottish grasslands to create limited-edition whisky, using a combination of sherry seasoned oak and bourbon casks.
Steven Bremner, Whisky Maker said: “There is so much to discover with The Macallan Harmony Collection Amber Meadow. It is a single malt redolent of warm meadows and mature barley fields, with a rich, citrus scented finish.
“The 100% natural summer evening colour derived from our exceptional sherry seasoned oak and bourbon casks reflects the richness of the flavour which awaits. On the nose fresh citrus fruits and honeysuckle are complemented by hints of vanilla, coconut and ripe barley fields. On tasting, notes of oak, lemon, melon are prominent, accompanied by flavours of classic scone and almond with green tea, before giving way to a rich and sweet long finish.”
The Macallan Harmony Collection Amber Meadow will be available from July 2024 at Haryana- INR 18,500/-,Delhi – INR 22,417/-,Mumbai – INR 22,000/-.
Additionally, the second variant, known as the “Green Meadow,” is available at duty-free stores in India.
