The Macallan Litha Limited Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

The Macallan Litha represents the coming together of two worlds – Scotland and Spain – to create an incomparable single malt whisky. 

The complex flavour of The Macallan Litha is derived from the use of first fill sherry seasoned oak casks from Jerez De La Frontera, Spain, the whisky mingling with the sherry seasoned oak to deliver its unique character.  

The story of The Macallan Litha begins in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, where our exceptional sherry seasoned oak casks – the greatest single contributor to our outstanding flavour and natural colour – are crafted to our exacting specification.

The journey of our exceptional sherry seasoned oak casks begins in the vineyards of Jerez de la Frontera where the Andalucian sun grows the grapes that go on to become sherry, which seasons our casks. They continue their journey to The Macallan Estate, in Scotland, where they are filled with The Macallan fruity new make spirit and the meeting of two worlds begins.

The Macallan Litha is encased in a vibrant presentation box, featuring a colourful illustration by award-winning US-based Chinese illustrator Sija Hong. This artwork represents a pure moment of creation from the first meeting of two forces.

The artwork represents the coming together of Scotland and Spain. Presenting two bold colour palettes, selected by Sija Hong with a particular journey in mind, Scotland is depicted on the right-hand side in the blue pantones, while Spain is represented on the left-hand side in the red pantones. 

The tree is a central element representing the coming together of these two worlds through maturation in first fill sherry seasoned oak casks – a pure moment of creation resulting in The Macallan Litha.
