Description
Tales of The Macallan Volume II is a tribute to Alexander Reid, the visionary founder of The Macallan. This edition, published in the 200th anniversary year, honors Alexander Reid, who as a teacher, farmer and distiller laid the foundations for the outstanding quality that characterizes The Macallan.
In 1824, Alexander Reid founded the distillery on the Easter Elchies Estate. Convinced that small stills produce a better aroma and a more intense character, he bucked the trend at the time towards larger stills. This philosophy of small stills is still one of the six cornerstones and a characteristic feature of the new distillery today.
This second edition of the prestigious Tales of The Macallan series is a collection that captures the stories of the pioneers of The Macallan and the defining moments that have shaped the history of the house. Distilled in 1949 and bottled in 2022, this outstanding whisky was selected at the height of its maturation.
This remarkable whisky is presented in a bespoke, handmade Lalique crystal decanter that honors Alexander Reid's career from teacher to farmer and distiller. The decanter is adorned with etchings of Andrew Davidson's illustrations, while the accompanying book contains artfully illustrated chapters by the artist, telling the story of Reid and the evolution of The Macallan.
