Macallan Remix Remixed

It may be hard to imagine today, but for much of the 20th century, Macallan was primarily a constituent malt in blends. It was not until the 1980s downturn in the market that the distillery decided to focus on its single malt brand. Fortuitously, this coincided with the crest of a wave of enthusiasm for the high quality releases that the distillery had licensed to Campbell, Hope & King and Gordon & MacPhail in the 1960s and 1970s. These remain some of the most collectible on the market. While global single malt sales volume is still lead by Speyside neighbours, Glenfiddich and Glenlivet, Macallan is easily the most sought after. So much so in fact, that they had to open a brand new distillery in 2018, a subterranean architectural masterpiece within the Easter Elchies estate, boasting 36 copper pot stills.

To commemorate the 75th birthday of photographer Daido Moriyama, Macallan launched The Macallan Masters of Photography: Capsule Edition - Daido Moriyama ‘Remix, Remixed’. Released exclusively to the Asian travel retail market, it features Daido Moriyama work from his book of the same name ‘Remix’. Each book includes a series of inspired French fold pages and has been hand-signed by the photographer.

The whisky was selected by Macallan’s Bob Dalgarno and matured in single cask #15245, a first-fill sherry-seasoned oak cask.

One of 500 bottles.

Please note due to the size of this lot, it will carry a six-bottle shipping fee.
