The Macallan – In Collaboration With Sir Peter Blake

Designed by Sir Peter Blake himself…

The Macallan’s collaboration with Sir Peter Blake began in 1986 when he designed a label for a set of twelve, 1926 60 Years Old single malts!

Another HUGELY collectible bottle from The Macallan! Released in 2021 by ballot only, the original RRP for this bottle was £750, but prices have now soared as always with The Macallan, with some websites selling these bottles for over £2500! It was also voted as one of the ‘Best Performing Collectible Bottles’ of 202!

This 2021 collaboration is The Macallan’s third with the iconic artist and this special whisky has been created to commemorate Sir Peter Blake’s visit to The Macallan Estate on the legendary River Spey. An Estate, A Community, and A Distillery tells the story of some of the colourful characters from The Macallan’s past and present and features a label digitally designed by Sir Peter himself.

The beautiful presentation box houses the bottle, a certificate detailing the history and heritage on which the art was based, and artwork printed on a scroll. This brightly coloured scroll contains a collage representing anecdotes from the wider collection, portrayed in Sir Peter Blake’s distinct style. A tracing paper overlay provides information on each character from The Macallan’s history that Sir Peter chose to include in his art.

But who is Sir Peter Blake?

Sir Peter Blake is a modest but ever-present embodiment of one of the Twentieth Century’s great cultural movements. His Pop Art creations define enduring iconoclasm, as he challenges established ways of thinking and the perception of art. His signature way with type, collage, photography and colour prompts the viewer to see things in new ways. Over the decades, Sir Peter Blake’s unique and timeless signature style has transcended fashion, music, and various art movements.
