The Macallan M is the house's flagship statement: a sherry-cask single malt presented in a handcrafted Lalique crystal decanter. It is a centerpiece for a bar and a gift worth remembering.
The Macallan produces its single malts in Speyside, Scotland, and the M range is its showpiece for rare casks. Recent M Decanter releases are presented in Lalique crystal, in a design by Fabien Baron, and each release is bottled in small numbers with its own composition.
The M Decanter is matured in a small number of sherry-seasoned oak casks, chosen for richness. This bottle ships at 91.8 proof (45.9% ABV).
