The Macallan Giclee Art Prints & Home Collection - River Spey Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Out of stock
The second release in The Macallan Home Collection is a tribute to our extraordinary Estate, inspired by the natural beauty of The Macallan's birthplace and the River Spey.
The stunning painting on the front of the pack is the work of photo-realist artist Michelle Lucking, and captures the River Spey in its majestic winter beauty. The Spey, which flows gently through our Estate, is an enduring source of inspiration and an essential part of our whisky-making process. We are proud custodians of our 1.5-mile stretch of the river, protecting its waters and the wildlife around it.
Michelle works with her fingers to bring her subjects, most often water, to life. She has used natural pigmented pastels to create a collection of six original pastel paintings of the River Spey, three of which are included in the art folio. The colours she has chosen echo the earthy hues of umber, russet and gold found within our whiskies.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber with russet and gold tones, a warm, sunlit copper glow.
Nose
Rich raisin and sultana lead the aroma, intertwined with cinnamon, apple and pear, underpinned by sweet oak, treacle sponge and vanilla. A warmly indulgent, comforting bouquet that hints at depth and refinement.
Palate
Sultana sweetness carries through a rich, velvety butterscotch, balanced by toasted oak. Cocoa-chocolate notes mingle with warm nutmeg, finished with a delicate hint of anise.
Finish
Medium-length finish of toasted oak and spice, a warm, lingering echo that carries hints of vanilla and dark chocolate as it gradually fades.
