Macallan’s Exceptional Cask series first appeared in 2017, it is exclusively comprised of single cask releases and was bottled using what the distillery considered to be their finest stock.
This is a truly rare whisky, with just 643 bottles being produced.
Rather than being released annually, the new additions are added as-and-when they’re discovered by the distillery’s team of Whisky Makers .

A true masterpiece, the Macallan Speymalt 1950 is an exceptionally rare single malt, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail as part of their esteemed Speymalt series. Distilled in the mid-20th century at the legendary Macallan Distillery, this whisky is a stunning representation of Speyside craftsmanship at its finest. Aged for decades in carefully selected oak casks, this release has developed an extraordinary depth of character, offering a sublime balance of richness, complexity, and elegance.
On the nose, expect an exquisite harmony of dried fruits, dark chocolate, and rich sherry-soaked oak, layered with hints of antique leather, tobacco, and polished mahogany. The palate is equally indulgent, delivering notes of black cherries, figs, and roasted nuts, complemented by whispers of cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of espresso. The finish is remarkably long, with waves of warming spice, dark honey, and velvety oak lingering on the tongue.
Each bottle of this ultra-rare whisky is a time capsule, showcasing the unparalleled quality of Macallan’s historic distillations. With only a limited number of bottles available and at £4,500, this presents a unique opportunity to secure a very rare Macallan for a fraction of the price.
A special whisky from Macallan, the Sir Peter Blake edition draws its inspiration from the mutual admiration of nature, beauty, and heritage cherished by Macallan and Sir Peter Blake.
On the nose luscious dried fruits, warm cinnamon, and aromatic cloves hit you, while the palate is further enriched with hints of zesty black pepper, vibrant orange zest, creamy vanilla, molasses, and indulgent dark chocolate.
The seventh release in The Macallan Archival Series explores one of our legendary advertising campaigns from 1986, ‘The Boffins Baffled’, which tells the story of a party of scientists who were left positively baffled when asked why The Macallan was so special.
Chances are there wasn't collaboration, communication, and checkpoints, there wasn't a process agreed upon or specified with the granularity required. It's content strategy gone awry right from the start. Forswearing the use of Lorem Ipsum wouldn't have helped, won't help now. It's like saying you're a bad designer, use less bold text, don't use italics in every other paragraph. True enough, but that's not all that it takes to get things back on track.
The villagers are out there with a vengeance to get that Frankenstein
You made all the required mock ups for commissioned layout, got all the approvals, built a tested code base or had them built, you decided on a content management system, got a license for it or adapted:
This is quite a problem to solve, but just doing without greeking text won't fix it. Using test items of real content and data in designs will help, but there's no guarantee that every oddity will be found and corrected. Do you want to be sure? Then a prototype or beta site with real content published from the real CMS is needed—but you’re not going that far until you go through an initial design cycle.
