Bottle Description
Tales of The Macallan Volume II pays homage to Alexander Reid, founder of The Macallan. On the distillery's 200th anniversary year, this edition depicts Alexander – teacher, farmer and distiller – on his way to the ultimate mastery.
This is the second edition of the prestigious Tales of The Macallan series: a collection that tells the story of The Macallan pioneers and the defining moments and decisions that have shaped our story. Distilled in 1949 and bottled in 2022, this exemplary whisky has been selected at the apex of its maturation.
Encased in a bespoke, hand-crafted Lalique crystal decanter, the remarkable 1949 vintage whisky honours the journey of The Macallan founder, Alexander Reid, from teacher to farmer and distiller. The decanter showcases etchings of Andrew Davidson's illustrations, while the accompanying tome features beautifully illustrated chapters by the artist.
Only 344 bottles, this is an outstandingly beautiful piece of iconic whisky history!
