Macallan The Edition No. 2 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Macallan Edition No. 2 Single Malt Scotch Whisky stands as a testament to the harmonious fusion of whisky mastery and culinary excellence. This exceptional expression is the result of a collaboration between Bob Dalgarno, Macallan’s Master Whisky Maker, and the Roca brothers—Joan, Josep, and Jordi—renowned chefs of the three-Michelin-starred El Celler de Can Roca in Spain.

Crafted using a meticulous selection of seven different cask types from four esteemed Spanish bodegas—Tevasa, Diego Martin, Jose Miguel Martin, and Vasyma—this whisky showcases Macallan’s dedication to wood management and flavor complexity. The diverse cask selection imparts a multifaceted character, offering layers of flavor that reflect the unique contributions of each collaborator.

On the nose, Edition No. 2 reveals inviting aromas of treacle, ginger, toffee apples, and rich fruits, intertwined with layers of vanilla that open into tropical fruits and subtle green wood.  The palate is warm and spicy, featuring cracked black pepper and cloves, complemented by hints of chocolate, brown sugar, oak, and nuts. The experience concludes with a full, slow, and wonderfully viscous finish, leaving a lasting impression of warmth and complexity.

Bottled at a robust 48.2% ABV, this non-age-statement whisky delivers a rich and intense experience that appeals to both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers to the world of single malts. As part of Macallan’s limited Edition Series, Edition No. 2 not only offers an extraordinary tasting journey but also holds significant value for collectors.

Whether enjoyed neat, with a splash of water, or as a centerpiece in a curated whisky collection, Macallan Edition No. 2 exemplifies the brand’s unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation in whisky making.
