The first in the series, The Macallan Concept Number 1 is inspired by surreal art and incorporates innovative production techniques to create an exciting new single malt. This expression is crafted from whiskies matured first in sherry-seasoned oak casks and then for an equal time in ex-bourbon casks. This is a single malt that was designed to explore maturation more imaginatively.
