Macallan Single Malt James Bond 60th Anniversary Edition - Decade V

The Macallan and James Bond are bound together by our shared Scottish heritage, innovative nature, and the pursuit of excellence. They have created a remarkable collection comprising six limited edition bottles inspired by each of The Six Decades of Bond, each decade encapsulated in its own packaging, telling the story of innovation over 60 years and the pioneering character attributes of James Bond and The Macallan.

The Macallan Master Whisky Maker, Kirsteen Campbell, has created a whisky with extreme grace balanced by remarkable strength and character - just like Bond himself. 

Through a behind the scenes exploration of the James Bond archives this release celebrates 007 and The Macallan as modern innovators linked by their Scottish heritage.The expression exudes a sense of style and maturity which has evolved over the years. It has a natural color of Suisse gold and an ABV of 43.7% as a homage to James Bond’s agent number, 007. The whisky is consistent within all six bottles.

The packaging of each bottle features an original illustrative design and color to denote the decade it represents. The distinctive artwork brings to life the creative development process of the films in a behind the scenes exploration of the James Bond archives. Bringing to life the innovations and inventions of James Bond across the years, the packaging has been color washed with one of the trending colors of the decade it represents.

Leaving the 90s behind, Daniel Craig embodies the Bond of the noughties. From his first appearance in Casino Royale, never was a card game presented so stylishly and with more tension in any other film. The setting, ingredients, character, and dedication to craft combine to deliver an utterly compelling result. 

The packaging design features a dramatic car sequence from Casino Royale (2006), and a digitally sketched rooftop chase in Quantum of Solace (2008).
