The extraordinary "Inspired by Intense Arabica" expression within The Macallan Harmony Collection pays a resounding tribute to the realm of coffee while impeccably harmonizing with the world of whisky. Crafted by The Macallan's Whisky Maker, Steven Bremner, this limited-release single malt is an embodiment of distinctiveness, reminiscent of a potent yet pleasantly sweet espresso coffee. Its presence promises an enchanting union of whisky and coffee, making it a delightful experience for enthusiasts seeking this unique pairing.
The Macallan Harmony Collection is a yearly series of single malt releases that casts a spotlight on The Macallan's inherent curiosity, innovation, and creative spirit. This particular expression, titled "Smooth Arabica," not only highlights the influence of coffee beans on the whisky's character but also showcases a presentation box crafted partly from coffee bean husks. These husks, naturally generated in the coffee-making process, are repurposed to create an environmentally conscious packaging, demonstrating a commendable commitment to sustainability.
As the second edition within Macallan's limited annual release series, this special single malt encompasses flavors reminiscent of ground coffee, hazelnut, and vanilla. These elements combine to provide a truly delightful whisky and coffee pairing encounter. Inspired by the Ethiopian Arabica bean, this whisky pays homage to Ethiopia, widely regarded as the birthplace of coffee. The Arabica bean, as the pioneer coffee species to be cultivated, holds historical significance in the coffee world.
