Macallan Reflexion

The Macallan Reflexion Single Malt Scotch Whisky
700ml | 43% ABV | Natural Color | Non-Chill Filtered | Discontinued

A Bold Expression from The 1824 Series

The Macallan Reflexion was a standout release in The Macallan’s acclaimed 1824 Series—a range that celebrated the distillery’s founding year through rich, sherry-driven single malts. Consequently, it showcased The Macallan’s mastery of European oak casks. Moreover, its striking angular black bottle made it a design icon—now a sought-after collector’s item since its discontinuation.

Crafted in Sherry-Seasoned European Oak

This expression is matured exclusively in sherry-seasoned European oak casks—the heart of The Macallan’s traditional style. In fact, the Macallan Reflexion delivers a deeper, richer profile than other 1824 Series bottlings, with pronounced notes of dried fruit, spice, and dark chocolate.

Rich, Spicy, and Exceptionally Smooth

Bottled at 43% ABV, this whisky offers opulent depth with remarkable balance. As a result, it layers raisin, fig, and orange marmalade over cinnamon, clove, and dark chocolate. Additionally, the European oak imparts a velvety texture and long, warming finish.

Tasting Experience

First, the nose reveals sultana, vanilla, and dried apricot, followed by ginger, nutmeg, and a hint of leather. Then, subtle notes of espresso and roasted almond emerge with air.

On the palate, the texture is rich and full. Flavors of plum, toffee, baking spice, and antique oak unfold with grace. The alcohol integrates seamlessly, enhancing warmth without heat.

Finally, the finish is long and satisfying—dried fruit, cocoa, and a whisper of oak. Altogether, it’s a powerful and elegant dram that embodies the character of this Macallan Reflexion.

A Discontinued Design Icon

The Macallan discontinued the 1824 Series (including Reflexion) to focus on age-stated and Triple Cask ranges. Therefore, bottles are now increasingly rare. Its bold black bottle and gold accents make it a standout display piece for collectors who appreciate Macallan’s design legacy.
