The Macallan Art is the Flower

A celebration of nature, artistry, and The Macallan’s timeless craftsmanship.

The Macallan Art is the Flower is a rare limited release that honors the poetic vision of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, one of Scotland’s most celebrated artists. Inspired by his 1902 stained-glass masterpiece “The Spirit of the Rose”, this expression pays tribute to the beauty, harmony, and circularity of nature — themes that resonate deeply with both Mackintosh’s art and The Macallan’s philosophy.

Crafted from sherry-seasoned European oak casks, this whisky showcases a rich and elegant flavor profile, shaped by time, artistry, and natural influence. Bold, expressive, and deeply evocative, Art is the Flower stands as a liquid tribute to creativity and the enduring connection between art and the natural world.

The Story
