The Macallan Horizon is an exclusive single malt Scotch whisky, crafted in collaboration with Bentley Motors.
The limited edition release, part of the 200th anniversary slate of The Macallan, features a spectacular 180-degree twist vessel, reflecting the horizontal trajectory of the automotive world. It’s priced at £40,000 ($50,000).
The bespoke glass vessel is designed to be displayed horizontally; an aluminium ribbon wraps the glass and is precision engineered by Bentley, in homage to the material used in the sculptural foundation and bodywork of a Bentley motorcar.

The vessel is encased in leather, crafted in a chestnut colourway to ornately finish and protect the whisky. The surrounding recycled copper frame includes copper from the stills previously used by The Macallan.
An inlay of oak wood on the closure is sourced from one of the six casks used in the maturation of this whisky, and inspired by the aesthetics of the Bentley Drive Dynamic Control rotary dial.
The sculpture is finished with Bentley’s Crown Cut Walnut veneer, a specification meticulously developed for its vehicles.
The bottle is twisted out of its arty enclosure, a protective aluminium overcap slid off, and the cap unscrewed for pouring.
Just 700 bottles of The Macallan Horizon will be available globally.
Bottled at 46.6% ABV, the single malt inside has been created exclusively for The Macallan Horizon.
Crafted by The Macallan Master Whisky Maker Kirsteen Campbell, from six first-fill sherry seasoned oak casks, maturing in the warehouses at The Macallan Estate, it’s rich, mahogany of hue, with dried fruits and spice on the nose.
Tasting notes report dark treacle, crystalised ginger and charred pineapple on the palate, leading to a long-lasting finish.
Jaume Ferras, Creative Director, The Macallan, proclaims The Macallan Horizon “the most complex and visionary whisky project that The Macallan has embarked upon.”
“Our collaboration with Bentley and the knowledge exchange we have undertaken has inspired us to see things very differently. In the spirits world, everything is vertical, such as our stills and our bottles. When we looked at the horizontal plane that Bentley’s grand tourers occupy, it made us consider if and how we could adapt this format for whisky, which ultimately requires to be poured and enjoyed.
“The beautiful design we have created together for The Macallan Horizon and the unique materials that have been incorporated are testament to the incomparable craftsmanship, innovation and creativity for which The Macallan and Bentley are renowned.”
The 70cl Macallan Horizon is available from The Macallan Estate Boutique and select whisky outlets, priced at £43,000.
