Overview
This release forms part of The Macallan’s Anecdotes of Ages Collection, a series reflecting the people and stories that have shaped the estate over time. It commemorates Sir Peter Blake’s visit to the Macallan Estate and interprets that encounter through both liquid and presentation.
The Spirit
Produced by The Macallan, this single malt was selected and composed under the direction of Lead Whisky Maker Sarah Burgess. The whisky is drawn from carefully chosen casks to create a balanced, classic Macallan style, with emphasis on dried fruit, spice, and oak-derived structure. Bottled at 47.7% ABV, it is presented without added colouring.
Why It Matters
The Anecdotes of Ages Collection documents The Macallan’s history through individual perspectives rather than chronology. This edition connects whisky making with visual storytelling, marking a long-standing creative relationship with Sir Peter Blake and offering insight into how cultural collaboration can sit alongside established distilling practice.
Serving & Context
Best approached neat or with minimal dilution, allowing the integration of oak, spice, and fruit to present without emphasis.
Availability Note
