Guardian Oak is an airport exclusive from Macallan that was created in collaboration with Cirque du Soleil SPIRIT - a nature inspired performance that premiered at the distillery in November.

The artwork features Davonna, a human character from Cirque du Soleil, intricately intertwined with the branches of a European Oak tree.

Guardian Oak is matured in a combination of first fill sherry seasoned European oak casks and refill sherry casks that have been carefully selected to deliver the classic European oak flavours of dried fruits and sweet spices, naturally derived from the cask during maturation, with a long and rich oak finish.

Oak chippings, a by-product from the creation of The Macallan’s casks, have been repurposed and used in the packaging, including the presentation box and bottle labels.
