Distiller Description:

With 100% natural colour, this single malt whisky has unique flavours of pear and white peach, and a smooth mouth feel with a finish of toasted oak.

M Copper is part of The Macallan M Collection, created to showcase The Macallans Six Pillars which encompass our guiding principles of mastery, artisanship and creativity. This release is an ode to the Curiously Small Stills that play an integral role in how we craft our precious spirit.

Our Curiously SmallStills are one of the defining features of our distillation process. The curiously small stills gives the spirit perfect contact with the copper, which helps to concentrate our new make spirit and create the rich and robust character that The Macallan single malts are renowned for.

As the liquid is heated in the stills, the alcohol within boils and turns to vapour, travelling over the neck of the still, where it cools and is condensed back into liquid. In larger and taller stills the alcohol vapour has a long way to travel, resulting in heavier vapours falling back into the boil and only the lighter vapours finding their way into the condenser. With small stills we can collect a dense and rich style of spirit, as the alcohol vapour doesnt travel as far.

Distilling our full-bodied spirit ensures that we can mature our whiskies for a long time, allowing the spirit to soak up all the intricate flavours of our oak wood casks.
