A SENSE OF COMMUNITY
The Macallan’s Whisky Maker Steven Bremner and the Roca brothers took a tour of the City Harvest London warehouse, and were strongly impacted by this vibrant community spirit – a hallmark of London. Joan, as a chef, feels a strong commitment to sustainability and the problem of food waste, and saw the creative ways this initiative is addressing the issue. Looking at the amount of fresh food and vegetables around them, both Joan and Steven felt an affinity to the origin of the produce, and -understanding the need to go back to basics with food- by producing and consuming more naturally. For Joan, being given the chance to cook for one of the City Harvest’s affiliated charities was a personal honour.
Distil Your World London is the kind of project that helps to raise awareness about food waste in big cities.

City Harvest
It would be impossible to create a whisky that reveals the soul of a city, without being able to feel part of it and get close to the people who make it what it is. Understanding and exploring London’s community values is a crucial way to understand a city itself.
This is something The Macallan values highly, considering its own relationship with its local community in Speyside, Scotland, as well as with its global community that it has built up over the years.
