photograph credits The Macallan, and this is the after meal tipple to accompany it, in its 200th year, The Macallan has unveiled The Macallan Horizon, in collaboration with Bentley Motors, the Macallan Horizon will be available from The Macallan Estate Boutique, the domestic and travel retail Bouqtiues, and selected online retailers, in what Jaume Ferras, Creative Director of The Macallan called “the most complex and visionary whisky project that The Macallan has embarked upon”, the team at Macallan has worked closely with Bentley Motors to produce a whisky and bottle that evokes the history and stature of both brands,

speaking about the historic collaboration, Jaume Ferras said: “Our collaboration with Bentley and the knowledge exchange we have undertaken has inspired us to see things very differently. In the spirits world, everything is vertical, such as our stills and our bottles. When we looked at the horizontal plane that Bentley’s grand tourers occupy, it made us consider if and how we could adapt this format for whisky, which ultimately requires to be poured and enjoyed”, Bentley Chairman and CEO, Adrian Hallmark, adds: “We’ve spent years working with The Macallan through our partnership, taking time to craft this incredible first joint product that represents the best of both brands. Centred on innovative materials throughout that reflect our focus on the future, the end result – both the whisky and the vessel that contains it – are stunning, and represent a new benchmark for design, materials and quality in this space” for the full story of this remarkable drink have a look here at The Whisk(e)y Wash, and the price for this after dinner tipple of which only 700 bottles will be produced? yours for $50,000 a bottle, if we book the space meal I must remember to ask Diana to pack a couple of bottles!
