Macallan Releases New Estate Product

[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] D&P Spirits, the importer and distributor of the world-renowned premium single malt whisky Macallan, announced on the 25th that it will newly launch Macallan Estate.

The newly released Macallan Estate is made using barley grown exclusively on the Macallan estate and is distilled for only one week each year. It is expected to add rarity and uniqueness for domestic consumers, thereby increasing its collectible value.

The Macallan estate refers to the area of approximately 1,983㎡ (600,000 pyeong), including Easter Elchies House, the Speyside River, the barley fields directly managed and cultivated, and the distillery newly unveiled in 2018, since the establishment of the Macallan distillery in 1824.

In particular, the malt used to make this Macallan Estate product is a variety that best expresses Macallan's distinctive flavor, specially managed and cultivated under optimal conditions. It offers a refreshing cinnamon aroma, flavors of dried fruit, and caramel notes. The oak flavors matured in sherry casks and subtle orange citrus scents also harmonize well.

The uniqueness of Macallan Estate is also reflected in the product packaging. From the box case to the distinctive slate panel that catches consumers' eyes, the inside of the package is decorated with aerial photographs of the Macallan estate’s natural scenery, allowing consumers who purchase the product to feel as if they are actually experiencing the Macallan estate.

A representative from D&P Spirits, the importer and distributor of Macallan, stated, "The Estate product, released to commemorate the precious Macallan estate, will be newly introduced every year starting with its first domestic launch this year. Its high collectible value has led to inquiries from consumers even before its release."
