The Macallan has brought to life its new travel exclusive Colour Collection via an extensive programme of vibrant experiential activations at key travel retail locations globally.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This significant investment, which includes pop-ups, high-profile promotions and an out-of-home (OOH) campaign, underlines the brand\u2019s commitment to the global travel retail channel and focus on driving awareness and recruitment through impactful storytelling.<\/p>\n

The Macallan Colour Collection<\/strong> pop-ups featuring The Macallan\u2019s new brand identity \u2013 inspired by the brand\u2019s rich heritage and spiritual home, The Macallan Estate \u2013 are currently running at Hong Kong, Beijing Capital, Shanghai Pudong and John F. Kennedy airports. The pop-ups invite shoppers to discover the new range through design features and touchpoints that communicate the story behind the launch and the collaboration with visionary US graphic designer David Carson. Shopper engagement is a key part of the pop-up journey, with an interactive augmented reality (AR) experience enabling guests to discover more about The Macallan Colour Collection<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These pop-ups follow the debut Colour Collection activation at Singapore Changi Airport, live from 1st September to 18th October, which was followed by a large-scale animation in Haitang Bay with China Duty Free Group. Both activations featured a gallery concept which invited shoppers to discover The Macallan\u2019s new brand identity and travel exclusive range via a life-size art piece echoing the curves of The Macallan Distillery.<\/p>\n

To raise further awareness of The Macallan Colour Collection, a substantial OOH campaign was rolled out at Hong Kong, Dubai, Shanghai Pudong, Singapore Changi, Paris Orly, Paris Charles de Gaulle, Heathrow, Miami and Los Angeles airports, capturing travellers\u2019 attention before they departed. The dynamic campaign at Los Angeles International Airport showcased a unique collage and key visuals created by David Carson to reflect visually the influence behind the collection.<\/p>\n

Jeremy Speirs, Regional Managing Director – Global Travel Retail at Edrington said: \u201cThe Macallan Colour Collection has received an overwhelmingly positive response from both retailers and consumers globally since launching last year. It\u2019s clear that consumers are enjoying being able to engage with the brand through our extensive programme of activity. The significant investment behind the Colour Collection launch underlines our unwavering commitment to the channel and we\u2019re\u00a0excited to bring this impressive new collection to life to even more consumers over the coming months.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The Macallan Colour Collection is a new range of five exceptional age statement whiskies celebrating the brand\u2019s commitment to natural colour and reflecting the influence of sherry seasoning. From the gold oak of the Colour Collection 12 Years Old to the burnished chestnut of the Colour Collection 30 Years Old, the range spans the radiant tones of the whisky spectrum, to showcase the exquisite natural tones derived from maturation in The Macallan\u2019s exceptional sherry seasoned oak casks.<\/strong><\/p>\n

2024 marks the 200th anniversary year for The Macallan, commencing with the reveal of a \u2018200 Years Young\u2019 logo and an evolved identity that recognises the brand\u2019s illustrious past and a celebration of the future.<\/p>\n
