The Macallan Horizon marks the inauguration created and fashioned in collaboration with Bentley Motors, merging skills from the realms of exceptional single malt whisky and extraordinary automotive design. Combining traditional craftsmanship with state-of-the-art precision engineering technology, The Macallan Horizon pushes the boundaries of what is possible – where purpose intersects with innovation, craftsmanship, and elegance.
The masterfully produced single malt Scotch whisky, showcased in an innovative horizontal container with a distinct 180-degree twist feature, showcases an unrivaled approach to product innovation and design, mirroring the horizontal aspect of the automotive industry. The debut was envisioned after extensive cooperation between The Macallan and Bentley Motors.
In homage to The Macallan’s Six Pillars cornerstone principles, six materials are integrated that are essential to The Macallan, Bentley Motors, and a collaboration based on innovation. The Macallan Horizon is presented in a distinctive custom-made glass container, a material fundamental to both The Macallan and Bentley, designed for horizontal display, challenging the norms of conventional whisky bottling.
An aluminum band encircles the glass and is meticulously engineered to Bentley’s rigorous standards, paying tribute to this crucial material utilized in the foundational structure and bodywork of a Bentley. The container is enveloped in a sculpture lined with the finest eco-friendly leather, expertly fashioned, in a chestnut hue to elegantly complete and safeguard the precious whisky. A surrounding copper frame is meticulously crafted from repurposed copper, which includes copper from the stills previously employed by The Macallan, before the globally renowned new Distillery was revealed in 2019.
