The Macallan Edition No. 3

Inspiration and innovation lie at the heart of The Macallan and nowhere is this more evident than in The Edition Series. Edition No. 3 brings to life the flavor experience of The Macallan through aroma, calling on Master Perfumer Roja Dove's remarkable sensory knowledge and expert sense of smell to create the third unique expression in the series. Borne of two art forms, Edition No. 3 unites the worlds of whisky and aroma to reveal the complexities of single malt character and the power of the senses in creating and experiencing The Macallan. When we experience and enjoy whisky, the power of aroma is unquestionable - and it is this power that makes the approach to Edition No. 3 truly mesmerizing. oja brought his skill to the distillery and the creative process, nosing a range of whisky samples to provide his thoughts and interpretation of the characters and aromas he encountered. Roja’s articulation of aromas was then used in the whisky's creation to select dominant notes that shape the final character of Edition No.3. Drawn from a combination of European and American oak casks, Edition No.3 is sweet and fruity in character, balancing the heavier base recognizable in our single malts with citrus, vanilla, florals and fresh cut oak.
