Macallan 60 Year Old Lalique Six Pillars

The Macallan 60 Years Old in Lalique – Six Pillars Collection Single Malt Scotch Whisky
700ml | 53.1% ABV | Natural Color | Non-Chill Filtered | 1 of 420 Bottles

The Dawn of a Legendary Series

The Macallan 60 Lalique launched the historic collaboration between The Macallan and French crystal house Lalique—a series that redefined luxury whisky. Distilled in 1950 and bottled in 2011 at cask strength (53.1% ABV), this 60-year-old single malt honors The Macallan’s “Six Pillars”: spiritual home, finest oak casks, natural color, peerless spirit, sherry-seasoned casks, and Curiously Small Stills. Consequently, it stands as a monument to six decades of unwavering craft. Moreover, with only 420 bottles released, it remains one of the most coveted whiskies ever created.

Six Decades in Sherry Oak

This spirit matured undisturbed in a sherry-seasoned European oak cask from 1950 to 2011—surviving decades of change in The Macallan’s warehouses. In fact, the Macallan 60 Lalique captures the essence of mid-20th-century distillation: unpeated, rich, and profoundly complex, with layers of dried fruit, spice, and antique oak.

Powerful, Silky, and Monumentally Balanced

Bottled at 53.1% ABV, this expression delivers majestic intensity with remarkable finesse. As a result, it weaves together fig, prune, and treacle with cinnamon, tobacco, and polished wood. Additionally, the extreme age imparts a waxy, velvety texture that lingers for minutes.

Tasting Experience

First, the nose reveals old leather, beeswax, and dried plum, followed by ginger, nutmeg, and a whisper of smoke. Then, subtle notes of dark honey and antique library books emerge with air.

On the palate, the texture is weightless yet full. Flavors of black tea, roasted nuts, baking spice, and antique oak unfold with grace. The high strength feels seamless, adding warmth and structure without heat.

Finally, the finish is eternal—dried herbs, cocoa, and a haunting echo of history. Altogether, it’s a transcendent dram that embodies the vision of this Macallan 60 Lalique.

A Sculptural Masterpiece

Housed in a hand-blown Lalique crystal decanter inspired by the Six Pillars, this bottle is a work of art. The decanter rests in a solid oak case crafted by Scottish artisans. Therefore, the Macallan 60 Lalique is as much a collector’s sculpture as a whisky—destined for museums and elite connoisseurs.
