Macallan's A Night On Earth series heads to New Zealand for its fourth instalment – The First Light. Featuring a collaboration with New Zealand artist Bonnie Brown, this edition commemorates the perhaps little-known fact that folks in New Zealand are the first in the world to celebrate New Year's Day! This release combines first-fill and refill sherry cask-matured whisky, alongside a sparing portion matured in American oak bourbon barrels, bringing mellow sweetness alongside rich fruit and spice.
Caramel hints of fired icing sugar suggest Christmas pavlova and coconut. There is also a fleeting scent of Manuka honey, unique in character and indigenous to New Zealand.
Rich caramel with mellow baking spices, vanilla ice cream, pavlova, icing sugar, stone fruits and a subtle hint of coconut and manuka honey.
Sweet and fruity with mellow spice and toasted oak.
