THE MACALLAN UNVEILS A NEW HARMONY COLLECTION IN COLLABORATION WITH THE MCCARTNEY SISTERS

The collaboration marks a first for the McCartney sisters, including the newest whisky within the limited annual release as well as a limited-edition lifestyle collection, honoring the shared values of The Macallan and The McCartneys..


The Macallan has announced a collaboration with Stella and Mary McCartney for the third edition of The Harmony Collection, united by curiosity, respect and admiration for the natural world. A first for Stella and Mary, the partnership with The Macallan marks a creative union of the McCartney sisters. This debut joint venture combines their creative talents in a collaboration which enables them to honor their memories of Scotland.


The McCartney sisters' love of the country goes back decades. Their emotional ties have never wavered. For them, Scotland is a place of comfort and nostalgia, a homecoming. Their work with The Macallan stems from memories of their Scottish home on the west coast and their time spent at The Macallan Estate, transporting consumers to Scotland's natural beauty.


The Harmony Collection:

The limited annual release series shines a spotlight on the brand's inherent curiosity, innovative and creative mindset. The Macallan partnered with Stella and Mary on the creation of The Macallan Harmony Collection Amber Meadow and Green Meadow.


These two distinctive expressions were inspired by the McCartney sisters' love of Scotland, which stems from their memories in the Scottish countryside, and honors the lands of Scotland that connect all those who have stood upon them for generations.

To create the limited-edition whiskies, The Macallan Whisky Mastery Team utilized a combination of sherry seasoned oak and bourbon casks, inspired by natural Scottish grasslands. Steven Bremner, Whisky Maker said: "There is so much to discover with The Macallan Harmony Collection Amber Meadow. It is a single malt redolent of warm meadows and mature barley fields, with a rich, citrus scented finish."


The packaging of each release features photography of The Macallan Estate captured by Mary McCartney, while the presentation boxes and bottle labels have been made using discarded meadow cuttings embracing the re-use of natural materials to create beauty from resources at the end of their lives – further marking the sisters' deep connection with the land.


TOGETHER: A Collection for The Macallan by Stella and Mary McCartney:

As part of the unique partnership, The Macallan with Stella and Mary McCartney, also embarked on a journey inspired by nature to create TOGETHER: A Collection for The Macallan by Stella and Mary McCartney, which introduces a limited-edition Collection of 11 lifestyle pieces designed by the sisters and skillfully realized by master artisans and craftspeople.



The Collection showcases a curated selection of bespoke pieces including handmade glassware in vibrant shades that are colored using natural minerals, an ombre ceramic flask encased in an apple leather alternative sleeve, a pair of brass ice stamps with meticulously hand-painted ceramic handles using a green and amber ombre color blend and a brass napkin weight in the shape of an acorn, as a tribute to the exceptional oak casks which mature The Macallan whisky.


Inspired by nature the green hues represent The Macallan Estate, the amber tones offer a nod to the natural color of the whisky, and the color red, which is synonymous with The Macallan, honors the brand's deep respect for tradition and craftsmanship.


Having worked with The Macallan previously, Mary McCartney said: "This range wouldn't be what it is if we weren't able to spend that time with The Macallan. I felt really proud to bring my little sister with me to The Macallan Estate on Speyside, as I knew Stella would fall in love with this just as much as I did.""We feel really lucky to be launching our first collaboration and making this range of pieces with The Macallan." Stella McCartney added: "We all – The Macallan, Mary and I – wanted to create a collection that celebrated the highest quality of materials and incredible craftsmanship that would be fitting of the shared values between us all. We envisaged pieces that were limited, yet would work together as a family. The idea was to have it live in your home, stand out, and of course be of the highest quality."


Carefully crafted by hand and using techniques honed over centuries, TOGETHER is a masterpiece of precision and artistry, a true testament to craftsmanship. Every piece reflects the individual skill of specialist artisans, harmoniously balancing shape, texture and color. Each item is inherently unique and timeless.


The Macallan Harmony Collection Amber Meadow will be available at The Macallan Estate Bar, The Macallan Online Boutique and in premium retailers, bars and restaurants around the world from October 2023, with availability in the US from early December 2023 for an SRP of $210.
