The Macallan A Night on Earth: The Finale
Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky, Fifth and Final Release in the A Night on Earth Collection, in Collaboration with Hill Spriggins
A Night on Earth: The Finale closes The Macallan's annual celebration of New Year's Eve traditions around the world. After editions inspired by Scotland, Jerez and other destinations, the series ends in New Orleans, the birthplace of the cocktail, drawing the city's music, its communities and its unmatched sense of celebration. The whisky's vibrant brass colour is a nod to the brass bands that fill the streets as the year turns.
The packaging was created with Hill Spriggins, a New Orleans-born painter, who produced three original artworks from her memories of New Year's in the city: streetlamp glow, bright lights and fireworks rendered in bold, expressive strokes of red, gold, blue and green across the gift tube and label. Inside, senior whisky maker Diane Stuart and The Macallan Whisky Mastery Team crafted a single malt a combination of sherry-seasoned American and European oak casks, bottled at 43% ABV with natural colour.
