Bottling Notes

The Macallan has unveiled a new range of four NAS (no age statement) whiskies exclusively for the global travel market: The Macallan Quest Collection. The collection is to replace its 1824 Collection in marking the brand’s most significant launch in over 10 years. The four variants – Macallan Quest, Lumina, Terra and Enigma aim to celebrate the distillery’s passionate and tireless quest for oak offering enthusiasts an exploration of flavour.

This offering is called ‘Terra’ and is matured exclusively in first-fill European and first-fill American oak casks sourced from two of the most distinguished family cooperages. It honours the best of sherry- seasoned oak from both continents characterised by its complex, but balanced flavours of dried fruits, toffee and rich oak.

Macallan Master Distiller Nick Savage comments on the Quest collection:
“For this character-led range, the liquids are phenomenal. It’s succinct and coherent and we can tell the Macallan story through the casks we have used. A true homage to the extraordinary lengths taken by The Macallan that it gives us the opportunity to reinforce the values rooted in the pure mastery of whisky-making”.

The Macallan Quest Collection is presented in entirely new packaging which is both unique and visually stunning. The range also features ‘tamper evident’ closures, which create a visual sign of tampering, a technology that has been a long-time coming and welcomed by the international whisky community.
