Macallan is easily one of the most recognized whisky names of all high-end whisky bottles. Now Macallan has created a single malt whisky that was made “to take you on a sensorial journey through one of the world’s most iconic cities.” The Distil Your World New York Limited Edition is the type of whisky that will bring in connoisseurs and some whisky investors alike. Limited editions of high-priced whisky come with an automatic scarcity. And Macallan comes with an automatic demand.

The Macallan Distil Your World New York is a limited-edition release of 1,000 bottles. It will be available starting April 2022 for an SRP of $4,200 for the 70cl bottle and $4,500 for the 75cl version at select Macallan Boutiques around the world, in premium specialist retailers and in exclusive premium non-specialist retailers.

Listed for a sale date of April 15 we located multiple bottles of the high-end Limited Edition available at the Wine-Searcher site ranging in price from $9,999.99 to $19,999.00.

Collectors Dashboard evaluates high-end collectibles as an alternative asset class. This means collectibles are attracting the same capital that could have been invested into stocks or bonds. Many bottles of high-end whisky now cost thousands of dollars, and some have gone for much higher. Collectors with a passion to own a collectible whisky of this caliber are now also acutely aware that they may have to compete directly against investors whose only desire is to make a profit.

Whisky Maker’s Notes:

• Color: City sunrise
• Aroma: Big apple with peanut brittle and milk chocolate. A sweet and salty mix like a rising dough and a wisp of sidewalks, fresh rain and cherry blossom.
• Palate: Baked apple and raisin, chocolate covered nuts, maple syrup and toasted waffles with a side of salted pecans.
• Finish: Medium with roasted nuts and sweet oak
• ABV: 49.5%.”
