TIME: SPACE-Mastery by The Macallan

The TIME: SPACE-Mastery is a unique single malt with layers of complexity that embraces 200 years of whisky craftsmanship. The release features 14 exceptional cask types, creating layers of complexity and depth in aroma, texture, and flavour. With whisky drawn from The Macallan’s exceptional inventory, the expression includes influences from European Oak sherry-seasoned casks, American Oak sherry-seasoned casks, American Oak Bourbon casks, and the finest refill casks.

This one-of-a-kind release will have limited availability of only 120 bottles in India, making it a rare and precious addition to any whisky connoisseur’s collection. Euan Kennedy, Lead Whisky Maker for TIME: SPACE-Mastery, said: “Inspired by past masters, we explored the full extent of our warehouses to capture the complex influences of cask seasoning, oak origin, cask size, and distillery character in one incredibly special bottle of whisky – with the elegance provided by European Oak at its heart.”

The whisky is housed in a crafted circular vessel representing the circle of life and the ongoing journey from the past to the future. In contrast to the subtlety of the exterior, the presentation case bursts to life with a vibrant red colour – synonymous with The Macallan - and 200 spikes, for the brand’s bicentennial year, represent how nature guards what is most precious and fragile. The intricate details are created using techniques stemming from the art of origami.

TASTING NOTES 

• Nose: Sumptuous Medjool dates, sweet baked figs and rich milk chocolate accompanied by delicate hints of honey and tropical character, reminiscent of dried mango and ripe papaya. Encapsulated by complex sweet oak
  
  
• Palate: A real sweetness is evident with sherry-soaked dried fruits, orange marmalade and honeycomb. Soft spiced notes of ginger and cinnamon develop
  
  
• Finish: Bursts of caramelised pineapple and creamy vanilla linger with the exquisite balance of subtle dark chocolate and coffee

Jaume Ferras, Creative Director at The Macallan, said: “The introduction of Time: Space Mastery is an incredible way to pay respect to our 200th anniversary by celebrating the significance of those who have come before us, yet it is also a symbol of anticipation of what is to come, as we build upon our heritage and look to times ahead.”
