The Macallan distillery in the Speyside region is renowned across the globe for creating some incredible and highly desirable single malt whisky. Founded in 1824 the long history of Macallan was enhanced when in 2018 the owners Edrington Group declared open their newly constructed distillery. Designed by internationally acclaimed architect Rogers Stirk Harbour & Partners the structural genius of the finished building has to be seen to be believed. It is outstanding and offers amazement and delight to its many visitors. The roof made of five undulating domes are grass covered and are designed to imitate the flowing hillside landscape behind. The reception area in the first dome looks out over a fabulous view of the river Spey. The remaining four domes house the stills, washbacks and one enormous mash tun. The production capacity is now a huge 15 million litres of alcohol.
