The Six Pillars
Underpinning this mastery of spirit and wood are The Macallan’s six pillars: the unique
elements that combine to make The Macallan so special.
The Spiritual Home
Easter Elchies House proudly watches over The Macallan distillery in Speyside,
Scotland.
Built in 1700, this Jacobean manor house is The Macallan’s spiritual home.
Curiously Small Stills
The Macallan’s curiously small and uniquely shaped copper stills help to
concentrate the flavour of the ‘new make’ spirit
The Finest Cut
The ‘cut’ is the amount of distilled spirit collected from the stills. The Macallan
takes one of the finest ‘cuts’ of any distillery in Scotland; only the best of the best,
typically just 16%, is selected to fill our casks. This distinctly robust and
characterful ‘new make’ spirit is the starting point for all Macallan
Exceptional Oak Casks
Under the guidance of George Espie, The Macallan Master of Wood, every single
cask is either hand-crafted or hand-selected. It is this unfaltering obsession with
selecting exceptional oak casks that delivers the wonderful variety of colour,
aroma and flavour throughout The Macallan range.
Natural Colour
At The Macallan, natural colour is something we insist on. It is the interaction of
spirit and wood alone which delivers the rich diversity of colour evident
throughout The Macallan range.
Peerless Spirit
The Macallan Whisky Maker, Bob Dalgarno keeps a watchful eye on the
slumbering casks, selecting the moment when each cask is at the peak of maturity
and perfect for bottling. It is this mastery of spirit and wood that creates The
Macallan… the world’s most precious whisky.
