matured in first fill sherry seasoned American oak and refill casks

Vibrant Oak is a collaboration with Cirque du Soleil celebrating 200 years of The Macallan. They combine their crafts to present this enchanting edition that reveres the marvels of nature and the infinite potential of the imagination.

Vibrant Oak is matured in carefully selected American oak casks to deliver the classic American oak flavours of vanilla, citrus and sweet oak, with a medium, sweet finish that delicately lingers. As an added touch of flair,oakchippings, the bi-product created while making casks for The Macallan, are used in the presentation box and the bottle labels.

The beautiful illustration of the box is linked to the character of the Cirque du Soleil, Ayla, intricately intertwined within the branches of an American oak tree. It emphasises the concept, “in Harmony with nature”. The design also incorporates peacock feathers which symbolises The Macallan’s natural colour and its peacock character.
