One of the first licensed distilleries in Scotland, the Macallan was established nearly 150 years ago on a plateau above the river Spey in northeast Scotland. In the wake of a recent decanter collaboration with noted creative director Fabien Baron, the company is celebrating with a new limited release single malt whisky.
The Macallan M Black complements the iconic M Decanter with a deep and smoky whisky housed in crystal of striking color and geometric form. The Macallan describes this evolution of the M Decanter as “a new step into lustrous black crystal,” compliments of the renowned French glassmaker Lalique. Crafted to complement the look and feel of its vessel, M Black takes the distinctive aromas and flavors of the Macallan’s oak cask-aged single malt whiskys to new heights with its strong smoky notes and peaty bite. In short, this is a complex spirit in a container that is multifaceted in more sense than one.
