Macallan The Archival Series - Folio 8 (70cl, 43%)

Macallan The Archival Series - Folio 8 is a whisky from Macallan (Speyside). Bottled at 43% ABV, 70cl. The Macallan distillery was founded in 1824 by Alexander Reid, a barley farmer and school teacher. Now owned by the Edrington Group, The Macallan prides itself on its Six Pillars, which include its curiously small stills, very narrow ‘cut’ of new make spirit and exceptional cask management. It is the most sought after whisky for collectors. A new £140 million subterranean distillery and visitor centre on the Easter Elchies estate was opened to the public in the summer of 2018 and has since won several awards for its architectural quality; with its exciting features including glass walls of vintage whiskies, a circular pod of copper pot stills, and a Boutique reflecting those in Dubai and Heathrow airports. Folio 8 Available only from the distillery and with a beautifully illustrated hardback book, The Archival Series continues to rediscover Macallan advertisements from the 1970’s, 80’s, and 90’s. Folio 8 highlights the brand’s ‘The Colossus of Nose’ billboard from the 1980s that played up the whisky’s ‘towering aromas’ and was a spin on The Colossus of Rhodes. The book contains a USB stick continuing the advertising archive. Please note this set does not come with its original transit packaging Please note that this set is a large item.
