Colour Collection 15 Years Old
The Colour Collection 15 Years Old showcases whisky that has been aged in American oak casks, perfectly complemented by a subtle addition of European oak.
The Collection is a celebration of The Macallan's commitment to Natural Colour and Sherry Seasoning.
The oak casks used for The Macallan Colour Collection 15 Years Old are seasoned with sherry wine from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.
With flavours of citrus, vanilla and baked peaches, the whisky is a natural beech colour - the outcome of our new make spirit and exceptional oak casks working harmoniously together over the years.
A travel exclusive, the Colour Collection will be available in The Macallan Global Boutiques, in key airports and selected duty free locations around the world from September 2023.
THE COLOURS OF JEREZ
Warmth emanates through this piece, from the soft orange brushstrokes evoking the orchards of Jerez de la Frontera – echoed in the shade of the wave pattern designed by Artist and Graphic Designer David Carson to the repetition of the bottle and the whisky inside.
This composition, with its dense collage of sliced and ripped forms and typography, is quintessential David Carson, who transformed the graphic design industry by rejecting the notion that text and images should be placed within a specified grid.
THE EXPERIENCE
Colour
The Macallan Colour Collection 15 Years Old
NATURAL COLOUR
The colours for the packaging have been meticulously curated to harmonise with the deep amber hue of the whisky held within. It pays homage to the captivating landscape of Jerez de la Frontera. The Macallan Colour Collection 15 Years Old has a slightly darker Natural Colour than the 12 Years Old: a rich beech hue that hints at its tasting notes of toasted oak, orange, and creamy vanilla.
Nestled by the vast Atlantic Ocean, Jerez boasts a land of extraordinary beauty, characterised by hot summers, resilient vineyards, and exquisite wines. It is in this remarkable place that The Macallan's oak casks are seasoned with sherry, an indispensable element in crafting exceptional single malt whisky adorned with a remarkably radiant natural colour.
