The Macallan 50 Year Old in Lalique, Six Pillars, First Edition 46.0 abv NV

Bottle no. 4 of 470

The Macallan in Lalique 50 Year Old was released in 2005 and limited to only 470 individually numbered decanters. The master craftsmen of Lalique have taken their inspiration from the Exceptional Oak Casks in which The Macallan is matured. The etching reflected details on the stopper and on the body of the decanter, an artistic representation of the casks and a realization in Art Nouveau style of Lalique.
