Scottish whiskey maker The Macallan has unveiled its new line of chocolate-infused single malts dubbed 'The Macallan Harmony Collection Rich Cacao.'
The new limited annual release series came as a result of Macallan whiskey maker Polly Logan's journey to Girona, Spain, where she began exploring the world of high-end chocolate. "I uncovered a great synergy between the whisky-making process and that of chocolate," said Logan, who brought her newfound passion back to Scotland. Logan drew from her experience in Spain, where she even worked with renowned pastry chef Jordi Roca to develop the 'The Macallan Harmony Collection Rich Cacao.'
The result is a unique series made from European and American oak casks, which deliver a rich single malt whiskey paired with the luxurious flavor of dark chocolate.
