Read More About the Brand

The Macallan has been a global benchmark for single malt Scotch whisky since its founding in 1824. The 'Classic Cut' series caused a sensation upon its debut in 2017. The core philosophy of the series is to grant the whisky makers immense freedom to select the finest spirit that best embodies the vintage's flavour characteristics and bottle it at the ideal strength to showcase its personality.

Classic Cut 2024 embodies Macallan's extreme dedication to wood mastery. Macallan possesses the industry's arguably most expensive wood supply chain, where every step—from the growth and felling of the oak to seasoning and coopering—is rigorously monitored. The flavour core of the 2024 edition comes from the refined fusion of European oak sherry casks and American oak bourbon casks. European oak imparts profound structure and warm spice, while American oak contributes lighter vanilla, citrus, and rich sweet fruit notes.

Located in the heart of Speyside, The Macallan distillery is renowned for its unique 'exceptionally small stills,' ensuring the collected New Make Spirit possesses exceptional richness and viscosity. This Classic Cut 2024 is the culmination of this robust base spirit's long conversation with top-tier oak casks, displaying unparalleled balance and depth. Whether for collectors or drinkers seeking a sensory thrill, this 2024 limited edition is a masterpiece not to be missed.
