When Macallan invited the Roca brothers, the culinary visionaries behind El Celler de Can Roca, into their cask selection process, they didn’t just make a whisky. They composed a masterpiece. Edition No. 2 is a sensory collaboration between whisky mastery and world class gastronomy, blending spirit aged in seven different sherry-seasoned casks to create a bold, layered single malt that refuses to be ordinary.

Tasting Profile
Nose: Bright and expressive, dried apricots, dark cocoa, candied orange peel, ginger, and a backdrop of warm oak.

Distillery Background
Founded in 1824, The Macallan built its legacy on exceptional cask sourcing and meticulous craftsmanship. The Edition Series steps slightly off that polished path, allowing for creative expressions and collaborations that push the boundaries of Speyside tradition. Edition No. 2 is not just a bottle, it’s a moment where worlds collided and something extraordinary was poured.
