Macallan Concept No.3 David Carson 2020

Macallan Concept No. 3 (David Carson, 2020)

A limited edition Speyside single malt from The Macallan, released in 2020 as the third and final expression in the Concept Series.

Concept No. 3 was created in collaboration with graphic designer David Carson, blending whisky-making craftsmanship with bold contemporary design. The packaging reflects Carson’s distinctive artistic style, making it one of the most visually striking Macallan releases.

Now discontinued, it holds strong appeal for collectors of both whisky and design-led editions.

Why you’ll love it

Macallan Concept No. 3 delivers classic Speyside richness with refined oak structure.

Expect notes of sweet vanilla, citrus zest, soft spice and dried fruit layered with gentle oak warmth. Matured in a combination of American and European oak casks, it balances sweetness with subtle structure.

It’s an elegant, design-driven limited release offering both drinking quality and collectible appeal.
