Description
The Macallan Edition No. 2 is a unique whisky that was created by combining seven different oak casks. The whisky has a warm, spicy palate with layers of vanilla and tropical fruits. The whisky has a full, slow finish that is wonderfully viscous.
A unique selection of oak cask styles are combined to yield a new limited edition expression each year. A characterful single malt, Edition No. 2 showcases our extraordinary commitment to sourcing and selecting only the very best oak casks for The Macallan.
A creative collaboration between Master Whisky Maker - Bob Dalgarno and the three Roca brothers - co-founders of world-renowned restaurant, El Celler de Can Roca - Edition No. 2 unites these four masters in one spirit.
The distinctive and dynamic character of Edition No. 2 has been shaped not only by the use of seven exceptional oak cask types from four different bodegas but by the creative spirit of each of the four collaborators; combining flavours to reflect each of their distinctive personalities in the resulting whisky.
