A Macallan single malt shaped by sherry oak and tea culture, exploring honeyed, floral character through careful cask selection.
Overview
This release from The Macallan Harmony Collection draws inspiration from Phoenix Honey Orchid tea, reflecting a shared philosophy between whisky and tea: time, land, and restraint. It sits within the Harmony series’ ongoing exploration of natural materials, collaboration, and cross-cultural craft.
The Spirit
Produced in Speyside, this single malt is matured primarily in sherry-seasoned American oak casks, supported by sherry-seasoned European oak and a measured inclusion of ex-bourbon casks. Bottled at 43.9% ABV, the whisky derives its colour and structure entirely from oak interaction. The cask composition is intended to express honeyed sweetness, gentle florals, and soft fruit, echoing the aromatic profile of the tea that inspired it.
Why It Matters
This expression continues The Macallan’s Harmony Collection narrative, linking whisky making with other long-established craft traditions. The collaboration with JING Tea highlights parallels between acorn-to-glass and garden-to-cup philosophies, while reinforcing The Macallan’s focus on provenance, natural materials, and thoughtful design.
Serving & Context
Best approached with minimal intervention, allowing the layered oak influence and subtle sweetness to unfold gradually.
Availability Note
Part of an allocated Harmony Collection release, with circulation determined by original production and regional distribution.
