The third release in the Harmony Collection has been created in collaboration with Stella and Mary McCartney to celebrate the lush, fertile lands of Scotland that connect all those who have stood upon them for generations.
The Macallan Harmony collection an annual limited release series inspired by the distillery’s deep-rooted connection to the natural world, showcasing innovative, sustainable packaging. The first pair celebrated the world of chocolate, the second the world of coffee and this, the third, is simply inspired by nature itself: Amber Meadow and Green Meadow.
Made in collaboration with Stella and Mary McCartney to capture memories of summers spent on their family farm in Scotland, Amber Meadow aims to celebrate the lush, fertile lands of Caledonia. They describe nature as both energising and serene, contrasting qualities rekindled by this collaboration
The Macallan Whisky Mastery Team have used this vision of warm meadows and mature barley fields, to craft a whisky with a rich, citrus scented finish, using a combination of both sherry seasoned oak and bourbon casks.
The single malt bottling boasts aromas of rich orange and lemon, honeysuckle, vanilla, coconut and ripe barley fields, with a palate full of rich oak, lemon, almond, melon and green tea. A rich, sweet, long and complex finish completes this ultra-fresh expression.
This collection’s natural packaging has been made from discarded meadow cuttings, granted a new life in the presentation box and bottle labels. The box itself features photography by Mary McCartney of The Macallan Estate.
Expanding on the collaboration, the sisters have designed homeware collection for The Macallan called, Together. In encompasses luxury glassware, ceramics and brassware
