These high-end spirits invite you to indulge in the historic ritual of gifting, as their rich flavors and bespoke designs enhance both the festive occasion and the drinking experience. For collectors and connoisseurs, these spirits represent more than drinks — they are invitations to celebrate moments of connection and reflection.
The Macallan
The Macallan continues its tradition of superior craftsmanship with the third release from its A Night on Earth series, culminating its 200th-anniversary festivities. Titled A Night on Earth in Jerez de la Frontera, this limited-edition single malt pays tribute to the Spanish city where the brand’s legendary sherry-seasoned oak casks are expertly crafted, solidifying The Macallan’s reputation for unparalleled quality. Inspired by the traditions and flavors of Jerez, the whisky is matured in a perfect balance of European and American sherry-seasoned oak casks. The result is a harmonious profile with notes of pastry, white grapes, honey, and spices, reminiscent of the Spanish New Year tradition of consuming twelve grapes and the festive sweetness of Pestiños, a classic anise-flavored pastry. More than just a drink, it is a sensory journey celebrating shared moments of togetherness and renewal associated with year-end festivities.
To enrich this narrative, The Macallan collaborated with Jerez-born artist María Melero, whose evocative designs embellish the packaging. From the crimson sunset of Jerez’s vineyards to intricate azulejos (traditional tiles) symbolizing the brand’s shared heritage with the region, the packaging captures the festive spirit and craftsmanship’s beauty. The vivid imagery ensures that unboxing is as memorable as the whisky itself.
Johnnie Walker Blue Label

Alongside Perfect Moment’s new Ice Chalet ski capsule collection, this collaboration showcases the seamless transition from slopes to urban elegance.
Master Blender Emma Walker’s new blend draws from Scotland’s northern high-altitude distilleries — such as Brora, Clynelish, and Dalwhinnie — delivering notes of salted honey, cocoa, and soft malt. This unique expression is best enjoyed ultra-cold, echoing its Alpine inspiration. Following last year’s collaboration with Michelin-starred chef Kei Kobayashi, this edition further enhances Blue Label’s cultural relevance and luxurious appeal. With its plush richness and après-ski charm, it is set to captivate whisky lovers, collectors, and fashion aficionados alike.

Stewart’s visionary experiments.
