The Macallan Concept Number 2 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Macallan Concept Number 2 is the second release in Macallan’s limited-edition Concept Series, a creative range that explores the intersection of whisky-making and the world of art, music, and culture. Bottled at 40% ABV, this release blends innovation and tradition through the use of three cask types—sherry-seasoned American oak, ex-bourbon, and Miguel Martin sherry casks.

Each cask brings its own unique note to the composition: American oak delivers soft sweetness with vanilla and citrus; Miguel Martin sherry casks add a layer of rich spice; and ex-bourbon casks contribute bright floral and toffee notes. The result is a multi-sensory experience—a whisky crafted as much for the imagination as for the palate.
