The Macallan has unveiled the sixth instalment of its Masters of Photography series, this time in collaboration with photographer Steven Klein.<\/p>\n

Inspired by the concept of \u2018time\u2019, only 1,000 bottles of the Masters of Photography: Steven Klein expression, bottled at 53.5% abv, will be released globally, priced at about US$2,995.<\/p>\n

Created by Macallan master whisky maker Bob Dalgarno, the release is the brand\u2019s first use of ex-Rioja wine casks, which are said to impart flavours of sweet berries and spices, as well as an \u2018unusual pinkish red colour\u2019. (see previous story<\/a> on Duty Free Hunter).<\/p>\n

Each pack includes a black presentation case, one of 10 different Steven Klein exclusive signed prints and a selection of custom barware tools, inspired by the Roca brothers of the El Celler de Can Roca restaurant in Spain. The bottle stopper has been fashioned to look like a horse\u2019s head.<\/p>\n

First launched in 2008, previous participants in the Masters of Photography series include Annie Leibowitz, Elliott Erwitt and Mario Testino.<\/p>\n

Klein said: \u2018My intention was to examine a world standing still through a moving camera. Typically, with consumption of alcohol, there is always an abundance of movement. I thought, what if it had all stopped for a moment and I could take a closer look at it. The idea is the perception of time.<\/p>\n

\u2018I used one of my favourite designers, Thom Brown, for the characters because I believe his clothes are bridged between the past and future in a great way.\u2019<\/p>\n
