"

The meticulously selected casks for the 1940 vintage have spent more than eight decades maturing peacefully in warehouses surrounded by the nature of Speyside.


Over time, the interaction between the maturing spirit and the sherry seasoned European oak casks has created a single malt whisky with a rich natural colour and a full, long-lasting flavour unique to a malt of this great age.

This is the oldest whisky ever released by The Macallan, a manifestation of our legacy of incomparable single malt whisky mastery over the last two centuries.


The first whisky to emerge from this Distillery, The 2018 expression carries forward the legacy of excellence that has marked our single malts since 1824, and also provides a complimentary counterpoint to the 1940 vintage. 

As a result, this truly unique release travels on a journey through flavour and time from the depths of the past, to the vibrancy of the future. 


TIME : SPACE is presented in a ground-breaking vessel, representative of a time machine. The outer chamber is a ring-shaped decanter holding the 1940 vintage, 84-year-old whisky. The inner chamber is a removable decanter holding the 2018 vintage, five-year-old whisky. 


The vessel is housed in a wood sculpture made of American and European oak, with a bold, 200-spike design that represents nature’s protection.
