Product Highlights

Full Product Description

The Macallan Harmony Collection Vibrant Oak 700ml is a limited-edition single malt Scotch whisky from The Macallan Harmony Collection. This release was created in collaboration with Cirque du Soleil as part of the celebration of The Macallan’s 200-year anniversary, alongside its travel-exclusive companion release, Guardian Oak.

This expression focuses on the influence of American oak. The Macallan states that Vibrant Oak is matured in a combination of first-fill sherry-seasoned American oak casks and refill sherry casks, delivering classic American oak flavours such as vanilla, citrus, sweet oak, and gentle spice.

On the nose and palate, expect intense vanilla bean, sweet sherbet, lime zest, fragrant pear, vanilla sponge cake, sweet oak, citrus, and soft spice. Cirque du Soleil’s release information lists Vibrant Oak at 44.2% ABV and highlights key flavours of vanilla bean, lime, sweet oak, citrus, and ginger.

The Harmony Collection is also known for its packaging concept. For the Vibrant Oak and Guardian Oak release, oak chippings, a by-product of The Macallan’s cask-making process, were repurposed for the presentation box and bottle labels. This continues the Harmony Collection’s focus on giving new purpose to natural by-products through innovative packaging.

This is an excellent choice for customers looking for a collectible Macallan release, a premium whisky gift, or an elegant Speyside single malt with bright vanilla, citrus, and sweet oak character.
