Description
Macallan Harmony Collection Inspired by Intense Arabica is a limited edition whisky launched by Macallan in 2022. It is inspired by the rich flavor of Ethiopian Arabica coffee beans. This whisky is matured in sherry oak casks, presenting the aromas of concentrated coffee, dark chocolate and sweet oak. The taste is as smooth as tiramisu, with layers of caramel and spices, and the aftertaste is warm and long-lasting. The packaging is made from recycled coffee shells, reflecting Macallan's commitment to sustainability. It is a sensory masterpiece that combines coffee culture and whisky art.
About the Producer
The Macallan was among the first distillers in Scotland to receive a legal license, establishing itself as one of the world’s premier single malt whiskies. Its creation is influenced by the natural raw materials from Spain, North America, and Scotland, all harmoniously blended with traditional methods and craftsmanship. Founded by Alexander Reid, a barley farmer and school teacher, The Macallan distillery is rooted in history. The original name of the area, “Maghellan,” derives from the Gaelic word “magh,” meaning fertile ground, and “Ellan,” referring to the monk St. Fillan, who had a close connection to the church that stood on The Macallan Estate until 1400. For centuries, local farmers had been producing whisky from their surplus barley during the quieter winter months.
