Time : Space Collection
To commemorate The Macallan’s significant milestone of turning 200 Years Young, we embark on a journey where time ebbs and flows and nature protects what is fragile and precious, with spikes surrounding what is beautiful and fragile. Through two limited expressions, we have created a new red spiky world; a visual language where time travel and nature connect and protecting spikes are the heroes.
TIME : SPACE Mastery took inspiration from past whisky masters and the variety of different cask styles available to create layers of complexity with incredible depth of aroma, texture and flavour.
Housed in a uniquely crafted circular vessel symbolising the circle of life and the ongoing journey from the past to the future, TIME : SPACE Mastery is a testament to The Macallan’s enduring legacy of excellence.
TIME : SPACE Mastery integrates everything we have learned on our 200 years long journey directly into the whisky-making process, emphasising the importance of community in crafting a product of this calibre. Our voyage through a spiky red world highlights key ingredients; barley, grapes for sherry seasoning and our exceptional oak casks, culminating in our village, where a community of caretakers assemble these elements into a singular offering.
Inspired by modern day royalty
The 21 Year Old Harris Reed Edition – Royal Salute Whisky
As purveyors of beauty, elegance and wonder, Royal Salute shares many common values with the world of fashion. In collaboration with the bold and brilliant faces of the fashion industry, The Fashion Collection pushes the boundaries of creativity and imagination in whisky to daring new heights.
Inspired by Harris’ perception of modern royalty, the collaboration is the embodiment of luxury, regality and craftsmanship, bringing together two worlds that hold these values at their core.
When embarking on the design process for the collaboration, Harris was drawn to the natural parallels between Royal Salute’s regal heritage and his signature feather headpieces, which he describes as modern day crowns. The feather headpiece became the hero feature of the design, adorning the flagon with a piece of iconography that combined the theatrical word of Harris Reed with the enchanting kingdom of Royal Salute.
