Description

The Macallan Diamonds Are Forever 55th Anniversary Release is an 18-year-old single malt Scotch whisky, distilled in 2007 and bottled in 2026 to celebrate the 55th anniversary of the James Bond film 'Diamonds Are Forever'. This limited-edition release is a collaboration between The Macallan and the James Bond franchise, continuing their creative partnership. Matured in a complex combination of first-fill European and American oak sherry casks, red wine-seasoned American oak casks, bespoke hybrid sherry-seasoned casks, and refill sherry casks, it offers a layered flavor profile. The packaging is inspired by the film's design and legacy, with the natural color of the whisky, 'Nevada Rock,' evoking the desert landscape of Las Vegas. This release is non-chill filtered and presented in a cylindrical tube.
