The venue, decked out in distinctive vibrant hues, offers an immersive, sensorial experience based on collage art created by graphic designer David Carson. To create the collage, the artist took inspiration from Jerez, home to historic vineyards and the source of The Macallan’s sherry seasoned oak casks.
The Macallan Colour Collection is a celebration of natural colour and illustrates the influence of The Macallan’s sherry seasoned oak casks, and comprises the 12 Year Old ($80), 15 Year Old ($180), 18 Year Old ($380), 21 Year Old ($1,280) and 30 Year Old ($4,600).
Interactive elements include a nosing tray, which incorporates key aromas from the range (toffee, oak, spice, citrus, floral, dried fruits), alongside a digital ‘Discover Your Expression’ curation tool
A limited numbered archival folio, which includes a Giclée art print by David Carson created for this experience, is available to purchase with either the Colour Collection 21 Year Old or 30 Years Old.
