Macallan Harmony VI Inspired by Fresh Coconut whisky is the sixth and concluding release in The Macallan Harmony Collection. This single malt is a product of real character and considerable skill, showcasing a blend of tropical coconut, zesty lime, and vibrant fruit notes. The Whisky Mastery Team has masterfully crafted this expression to highlight these flavours, pushing beyond the traditional confines of age. The result is a unique and playful whisky that closes the Harmony series with elegance.
The whisky is matured exclusively in first-fill American oak (Quercus Alba), including casks that previously held bourbon and sherry-seasoned American oak. This careful maturation draws out the naturally occurring coconut lactones from the wood, allowing the coconut flavour to shine through without losing the classic Macallan profile. Bottled at 46.3% ABV, the .3 serves as a playful nod to the coconut's three germination "eyes".
