The Macallan Edition No 4
THE MACALLAN Edition No 4 is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky and the fourth release in The Macallan Edition Series. Created to celebrate The Macallan’s whisky-making heritage and the pioneering design of the new Macallan Distillery, it is built around a combination of European and American oak casks and bottled at 48.4% ABV.
The Macallan states that Edition No. 4 is crafted from a combination of European and American oak casks, with each cask style contributing different dimensions to the final single malt. The release continues the Edition Series focus on transparency in cask selection and highlights The Macallan’s wood-and-spirit approach rather than an age statement.
In the glass, Edition No. 4 shows a burnished copper colour. Its aroma moves from rounded honey and sweet apple to orange zest, ginger, nutmeg, matured oak, subtle green wood and floral undertones. The palate opens with nutmeg, wood spice and green clove before settling into sweet vanilla and a viscous mouth-coating texture, finishing fruity, oaky-sweet, long and lasting.
This expression suits collectors of The Macallan Edition Series and drinkers who enjoy oak-led Speyside single malt with citrus, spice, honey and vanilla depth. Serve it neat to appreciate the cask influence, or add a few drops of water gradually if you prefer a softer aromatic opening.
