The Macallan A Night on Earth The First Light
The Macallan A Night on Earth: The First Light – A New Beginning in Liquid Form
The Macallan A Night on Earth: The First Light is the latest addition to Macallan’s popular limited edition series celebrating the New Year. This time, the journey takes them to New Zealand – the first country in the world to welcome the New Year – and here, Macallan has teamed up with New Zealand artist Bonnie Brown to create a whisky that captures the essence of the first rays of sunshine and warm memories of celebration and togetherness.
A tribute to the first light
“The First Light” is not just about whisky, but about moods, emotions and beginnings. Bonnie Brown’s colourful illustrations on the packaging reflect the natural beauty of New Zealand and the special atmosphere of sunrise on the first day of the year. The visual narrative accompanies a whisky that is designed to evoke memories – and perhaps create new ones.
Flavor profile
This single malt Scotch whisky is bottled at 43% and delivers a warm and welcoming taste experience.
