The Macallan has collaborated with Jerez-born artist, María Melero, to create the designs that can be enjoyed during the unique unboxing experience of A Night on Earth. María has used her fondest memories of New Year in her home city. Starting with a crimson sky over vineyards of sherry grape vines; progressing into María’s city home, represented by the azulejos (traditional Jerez wall tiles); and finally reaching gold-toned grapes to represent the sherry wine that will one day season the Macallan casks.
