The Macallan distillery was founded in 1824 by Alexander Reid, a barley farmer and school teacher. Now owned by the Edrington Group, The Macallan prides itself on its Six Pillars, which include its curiously small stills, very narrow 'cut' of new make spirit and exceptional cask management. It is the most sought after whisky for collectors, regularly setting records at auctions all round the world.
A new £140 million subterranean distillery and visitor centre on the Easter Elchies estate was opened to the public in the summer of 2018 and has since won several awards for its architectural quality; with its exciting features including glass walls of vintage whiskies, a circular pod of copper pot stills, and a Boutique reflecting those in Dubai and Heathrow airports.
The Harmony Collection: Rich Cacao
Introduced in 2021, The Harmony Collection from Macallan is an exploration into the world of sustainable packaging, in an effort coexist harmoniously with the environment. We’ll assume that some importance was placed upon the whisky as well, as this first edition represents yet another collaboration with chef Jordi Roca, of El Cellar De Can Roca. Whisky Maker Polly Logan had the job of traveling to the restaurant and experiencing the chocolate making process that has inspired the Rich Cacao release. Nice work if you can get it.

Harmony Collection Intense Arabica
Inspired by the Ethiopian Arabica bean, Ethiopia is claimed to be the birthplace of coffee as the Arabica bean was the first species of coffee to be cultivated. The packaging has been expertly crafted to give new life to coffee bean husks, a by-product of coffee, that would otherwise have been discarded.

The Harmony Collection: Smooth Arabica
The Second Edition, Smooth Arabica was created by The Macallan Whisky Maker Steven Bremner, who immersed himself in the art of coffee. Using Yirgacheffe and Limu coffee beans he hosted a masterclass with world-renowned coffee masters at The Macallan Estate, exploring the process from field to cup and uncovering the unique process and distinct flavour profiles of the beans at each stage.
