Archival Series Folio 8 Single Malt Scotch 700ml Bottle$1,334.99
The eighth release in this collector's series brings new life to one of The Macallan's most memorable advertising campaigns from the 1980s.
A Historic First for American Collectors
For the first time, The Macallan has allocated 450 bottles of an Archival Series release to the U.S. market. This expression pays tribute to "The Colossus of Nose" campaign, which playfully referenced the ancient Wonder of the World to highlight The Macallan's distinctive aromatics. Each bottle is presented in a book-shaped box accompanied by a commemorative booklet exploring the campaign's history. Whisky maker Steven Bremner selected exceptional European sherry seasoned oak casks to create a spirit worthy of this historic release, bottled at 43% ABV.
A Symphony of Classic Macallan
The vintage terracotta-colored spirit offers ripe dried fruits and sweet berry compote on the nose, complemented by toffee, lemon peel, and hints of cinnamon and anise. The palate delivers warming ginger, bright citrus, and sweet oak, leading to a luxuriously long finish rich with oak spices.
