Established and currently headquartered in Scotland, the single-malt whisky has developed into one of the most renowned brands in the industry.
In celebration of the significant anniversary, the distillery has collaborated to produce a limited edition whisky named The Macallan Horizon. Enclosed in a horizontally-aligned glass bottle, which Macallan asserts reflects the "horizontal trajectory of the automotive industry." Bentley’s proprietary Crown Cut Walnut veneer is included in the inlay, complementing an aluminum spiralized case that is lined inside with leather.
The whiskey was produced by master distiller Kirsteen Campbell, who chose the new expression from six Sherry-seasoned oak casks of The Macallan. The aroma conjures dark cherries and plums, while a sumptuous finish reveals nuances of crystallized ginger, cinder toffee, and burned pineapple.
Similar to numerous unique offerings from The Macallan, this whisky is accompanied by a substantial price tag. Collectors must expend $51,000 USD (£40,000 GBP) for a bottle of The Macallan Horizon.
