Tales of the Macallan Volume II, a single malt Scotch whisky, comes encased with an almanac that tells the story of founder Alexander Reid.

"Displaying beautiful tones of bronzed oak, and subtle red hues that reflect the original meaning of Alexander Reid’s surname in Scots—The Red One—this rare and unique single malt whisky possesses an incredible complexity achieved through age and patient maturation. Enjoying a lingering smokiness redolent of whiskies of Alexander’s time, it is a fitting tribute to his living legacy as we celebrate our 200th anniversary year,” The Macallan lead whisky maker Euan Kennedy said.

Only 344 decanter of the limited-edition whisky will be available on Jan. 26th. For US customers, receive information on purchasing by emailing [email protected].
