The Macallan decided to go all out, where an
ordinary glass container would not be adequate to hold their special 50 year single malt. Lalique will be hand
blowing an exclusive 470 decanters made to resemble the Spanish sherry barrels in which the Scotch rested for five
decades. Only 20 will be for sale in the UK, which makes me feel pretty special here in the US where we will get
100 at about $6,000 each. The whisky is presented in a leather and silk box, with a crystal stopper and a leather-bound
collectors guide with The Macallan’s Easter Elchies House Stamp of approval. The burnish gold-colored malt is rich
with flavors of cardamom, black cherries, and chocolate.

What's different between Macallan's Lalique & Macallan's Millennium?
