The Macallan M Black, 2022 Release

Rare, black ended casks holding peated whisky have been meticulously selected to create this unique expression. The smoke-infused spirit matured in these sherry seasoned oak casks has gathered distinction and depth over decades.

Our Whisky Mastery Team have used this rare peat note to create an extraordinary whisky, continuing to push the boundaries of creativity and craftsmanship. An affectionate history of a whisky, it expressively chronicles bygone crafts of the generations that made it. Those lucky to meet it will never forget their rendezvous.

Subtly smoky and brooding it may be, but the whisky possesses the spark and breeding of a true Macallan. In its honour, its new home is hand crafted from black Lalique crystal.

The Macallan M Black is utterly unique. Precious, peat infused single malt, Lalique finesse and lateral creativity are married seamlessly. This remarkable release is truly one to cherish.

One of the most challenging materials in the glass blower’s repertoire, requiring more time and resource to produce than clear crystal. These individually numbered, slim and elegant decanters are flawless.

Their six facets are the inspirational acknowledgement of The Macallan’s defining six pillars. Designed by the Gallic creative visionary, Fabien Baron, the decanter was one of the most challenging that Lalique, true masters of the art, had encountered. Contemporary yet classical, their iconic realisation is a reverential triumph.
