The Macallan Edition No. 2 Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750mL

The Macallan Edition No. 2 Single Malt Scotch Whisky is the second release in The Macallan’s acclaimed Edition Series, introduced in 2016. This limited-edition expression was created through a collaboration between The Macallan’s Master Whisky Maker Bob Dalgarno and the Roca brothers of El Celler de Can Roca. The whisky was assembled from a carefully selected combination of seven European and American oak cask types, highlighting The Macallan’s signature relationship between exceptional oak and rich single malt character. Bottled at 96.4 proof (48.2% ABV), Edition No. 2 is a discontinued and increasingly collectible release.

The nose offers warm spice, ginger, dark fruit, brown sugar, vanilla, and citrus. The palate is rich and layered with dried fruit, black pepper, ginger, chocolate, caramelized sweetness, and toasted oak. The finish is long, warm, and complex, with lingering spice, fruit, vanilla, and oak.
