Macallan Archival Series Folio 4 is the fourth edition of this limited release from Macallan was only available through an online ballot. This is unlike the previous releases which were available only at the distillery.
Folio 4 features an advertisement including a strathspey composed by James Scott Skinner (1843-1927). The ad notes that Skinner, “The Strathspey King”, was moved to music by the lilting flavour and melting resonances of a tumbler of his favourite malt whisky – The Macallan.
The ad, small but groundbreaking, was the first instance of musical notation displayed on a page of British newspaper, The Times, and quite possibly in the advertising of any whisky.
As with the previous Folio releases, the bottle is presented with a book inside an elegant book-shaped tin box.
