Exclusive single malt whiskey horizontal bottle: The Macallan Horizon
A whiskey bottle designed by Bentley was announced as the first collaboration between Bentley and whiskey Macallan distillery.
What is this, cool.
It seems that it is still a prototype, but this design bottle is called "The Macallan Horizon" and is very new in both design and material.
According to Chris Cooke, Product & Lifestyle Design Manager at Bentley, this is "the true Bentley design DNA of combining sharpness and curvaceousness" and "Macallan innovation" by both iconic British brands, and " A fusion of recycled materials."
Inside the bottle is Macallan limited edition single malt whiskey.
A feature of this bottle is that it does not have the so-called "bottom" of the bottle, but instead has a stand so that the bottle can be placed horizontally sideways.
Jaume Ferras, Macallan's global creative director, said, "We saw Bentley's horizontal design and wondered if we could apply this to a whiskey bottle, and eventually that horizontal design became a 'whiskey bottle that needs to be poured'. It was necessary to consider uruka.
The bottle itself is made of glass twisted 180 degrees.
A design that surrounds it with an intricately twisted 3D structure made from several recycled and sustainable materials.
The recycled materials include recycled copper from disused distillers at Macallan's former distillery, aluminum recovered from the process of making Bentley cars, and the Scottish material used in the Bentley Batur. Contains low CO2 leather, recycled wood from both companies.
Anyway, Macallan seems to be very satisfied with this bottle design and he is proud of it.
The unparalleled craftsmanship and creativity of Macallan and Bentley make this Macallan Horizon bottle possible, said to embody the uncompromising excellence Macallan has pursued since 1824.
The Macallan Horizon bottle is still in preparation at this time and is scheduled to be released in the summer of 2023.
I want a little bit, but I can easily imagine that the price will be very high, so hmm (laughs).
