Steven Bremner, Whisky Maker, The Macallan, said: "Exploring the world of coffee with our masters in the industry, who shared their knowledge, creativity, and love for their art, was both an education and an inspiration. There are many parallels between the approach to creating incomparable whisky and coffee. Each requires unique skills and craftsmanship to achieve depth and complexity of taste and both worlds aim to deliver an extraordinary consumption experience." You may also have seen or heard about the Harmony Collection expressions “ Fine Cacao” and “ Smooth Arabica”. These are variations on the same themes, but produced exclusively for the Travel Retail market. Matured exclusively in Oloroso sherry seasoned oak casks from Jerez, Spain. The Macallan Sherry Oak whiskies are defined by their rich flavours of vanilla, dried fruits, and ginger spice with a long finish.

The Harmony Collection Intense Arabica is inspired by the Ethiopian Arabica bean. As part of the Sydney media launch for this release, attendees gathered at the Genovese Coffee House in Alexandria, where guests were treated to a wee presentation about the history and traditions of coffee and, in particular, the features of the Arabica bean and Ethiopia’s coffee heritage. Simon James of Genovese Coffee prepared up a specially-brewed pot of Arabica coffee (French Press, 1 part coffee to 14.5 parts water, for the coffee enthusiasts out there), and it didn’t take much imagination to join the dots between the delicious aromas wafting out of the steaming cup and the juicy dram of Intense Arabica sitting alongside. Simon James preparing a brew of Arabica coffee. Founded in 1824, The Macallan is renowned worldwide for its extraordinary single malt whiskies.

If you’ve got the extra money and are looking for a unique blend of flavors, the Macallan Harmony Collection – Intense Arabica edition will make a nice addition to your bar. Inspired by Intense Arabica is said to be reminiscent of a sweet-yet-strong espresso coffee and has a higher ABV of 44%, while Smooth Arabica offers the flavours of a gently spiced and soft americano, and rests at an ABV of 40%. To create the coffee-inspired second edition of The Harmony Collection, I sought out intense notes in The Macallan's traditional sherry seasoned European oak casks that would offer the rich and satisfying elements of coffee, with the influence of sherry seasoned American oak casks adding sweeter and softer vanilla notes for a balanced and rounded experience. If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. This special edition Macallan has a very bold, complex flavor profile. On the nose, you get strong caramel and toffee, but also dark fruits, plums, and spices.
