Description
The Macallan Concept Number 1 is a 80 Proof (40% ABV) limited-edition expression from The Macallan Distillery, released in 2018 as the inaugural bottling in the Concept Series. This Highland Single Malt is defined by a technical “dual maturation” process that reverses the distillery’s traditional workflow, maturing the spirit first in sherry-seasoned oak casks before transferring it for an equal duration into American ex-bourbon barrels.
This experimental approach is engineered to disrupt the classic house style, emphasizing bright citrus and green apple top notes alongside the deeper butterscotch undertones of the bourbon influence. After its innovative maturation in Speyside’s temperate climate, the spirit achieves a harmonious equilibrium between the spicy oak depth of the sherry seasoning and the creamy, light sweetness of the ex-bourbon wood, presented in surrealist-inspired packaging.
