The fifth release in Macallan's annual Harmony Collection, created in collaboration with British tea purveyor JING, it draws inspiration from Phoenix Honey Orchid oolong tea, a rare variety from Guangdong, China. Matured predominantly in sherry-seasoned American oak with European oak and a touch of ex-bourbon influence, it offers peach, apricot, floral honey and toffee character, presented in packaging made from repurposed tea leaves.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Macallan Harmony Collection Jing Phoenix Honey Orchid Tea Tasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNose: Summery peach and apricot with the heady sweetness of floral honey, intertwined with tropical fruits, toffee and sweet oak.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003ePalate: Fresh peaches in rich syrup, warm citrus and toffee, with light floral notes leading to a delicate leafy astringency.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eFinish: Fruity, sweet and complex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Add The Macallan Harmony Collection Jing Phoenix Honey Orchid Tea to Your Collection?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Harmony Collection is Macallan's annual platform for genuinely unusual collaborations — past editions have explored chocolate, coffee, and a nature-led partnership with Stella and Mary McCartney — and this fifth release pairs the distillery with JING, a British tea specialist, to explore the shared ritual and craft between whisky tasting and tea ceremony. The whisky itself is built to echo the specific character of Phoenix Honey Orchid, a rare Guangdong oolong known for its dessert-wine aromas and exotic fruit notes: predominantly sherry-seasoned American oak brings the fruity, floral base, European oak adds roasted richness and gentle astringency, and a touch of ex-bourbon cask rounds it out with sweetness that deliberately mirrors the tea's own dessert-wine character. Beyond the liquid, the packaging is made from repurposed spent tea leaves, tying the sustainability story directly to the collaboration rather than treating it as an afterthought. It's a strong pick for collectors following the Harmony series, or for whisky drinkers with an interest in tea culture looking for a genuinely conceptual crossover release.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Macallan Distillery\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Macallan is a Highland single malt Scotch whisky distillery established in 1824 at Easter Elchies, near Craigellachie in Speyside, Scotland. Renowned for its \"mastery of wood and spirit,\" the distillery is famous for using some of the smallest stills in the Scotch whisky industry and reserving a limited \"cut\" of spirit for maturation, resulting in a richer, more full-bodied whisky. The Macallan is widely regarded as one of the most prestigious and highly collected single malt Scotch whisky brands in the world, with rare and vintage bottlings regularly achieving record prices at auction, and its Harmony Collection showcasing the brand's willingness to explore unconventional creative collaborations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Macallan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52112303882528,"sku":null,"price":289.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/0232\/3232\/files\/TheMacallanHarmonyJingPheonix.webp?v=1785888874","url":"https:\/\/whisky.estate\/products\/the-macallan-harmony-collection-jing-phoenix-honey-orchid-tea-single-malt-scotch-whisky","provider":"Whisky Estate","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
