Macallan Folio 2 – A Collector’s Dream from The Archival Series

The Macallan Folio 2 is the second release in The Archival Series, a highly sought-after collection that pays tribute to Macallan’s rich heritage in whisky advertising. This limited-edition release revives one of the brand’s classic print campaigns, celebrating Macallan’s reputation for exceptional sherry-cask-matured single malt whisky.

As with all expressions from The Macallan Archival Series, Folio 2 is a whisky of rare elegance and refinement, matured in the brand’s signature sherry-seasoned oak casks. The result is a dram bursting with rich dried fruit, warming spice, and deep oak influence—a classic Macallan profile with exceptional complexity.

On the nose, expect a beautifully layered aroma of dried figs, raisins, and orange peel, wrapped in cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Hints of dark chocolate, toasted almonds, and subtle oak spice add further intrigue.

The palate is sumptuously rich, delivering a harmonious blend of sherried sweetness, ripe plum, and caramelized apple, followed by notes of toffee, ginger spice, and roasted coffee beans. The texture is velvety smooth, with an exquisite depth that lingers long after each sip.

The finish is long, warm, and sophisticated, with echoes of spiced fruitcake, oak tannins, and dark chocolate, making this a whisky that truly embodies the prestige of Macallan’s sherried tradition.

With limited availability and high demand among collectors and Macallan enthusiasts, the Macallan Folio 2 is a must-have for those looking to own a piece of whisky history. This edition comes beautifully presented in a bespoke book-style case, making it a standout addition to any luxury whisky collection.
