{"product_id":"the-macallan-harmony-collection-guardian-oak-x-cirque-du-soleil","title":"The Macallan Harmony Collection – Guardian Oak X Cirque du Soleil","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"245\" data-end=\"627\"\u003eCreated as the fourth release in the Harmony Collection, this limited edition whisky marks 200 years of The Macallan and its long-standing belief that oak is not just a container, but a creative force. The distillery often says that oak is responsible for up to 80% of flavour and all of the natural colour in its whisky — and Guardian Oak exists to make that idea tangible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"629\" data-end=\"984\"\u003eThe whisky is matured predominantly in first-fill European oak sherry-seasoned casks, chosen to showcase what European oak does best: deep colour, dried fruit richness and layered spice. These casks are made to The Macallan’s exact specifications, a process that takes years and reflects the same patience and precision that defines the spirit itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"986\" data-end=\"1510\"\u003eThe story extends beyond the liquid. Guardian Oak was created in collaboration with Cirque du Soleil’s SPIRIT experience, an immersive performance developed at The Macallan Estate. The artwork on the bottle and packaging depicts a human figure intertwined with a European oak tree, symbolising the harmony between nature and human creativity. Even the packaging itself reinforces the message, incorporating oak chippings, a by-product of cask making, to give new life to the very material that shapes the whisky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1512\" data-end=\"1780\"\u003eIn the glass, Guardian Oak is rich and expressive — a Speyside single malt driven by sherry, oak and warmth rather than smoke. It’s a whisky that tells its story quietly but confidently, reminding you that before flavour, before colour, before character, there is oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1512\" data-end=\"1780\"\u003eTechnical Details:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"877\" data-end=\"966\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"877\" data-end=\"892\"\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Macallan (Speyside, Scotland) \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"969\" data-end=\"1079\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"969\" data-end=\"984\"\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Harmony Collection — fourth release (Guardian Oak) \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1082\" data-end=\"1158\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1082\" data-end=\"1092\"\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Malt Scotch Whisky \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1161\" data-end=\"1215\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1161\" data-end=\"1169\"\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 44.2% \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1218\" data-end=\"1289\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1218\" data-end=\"1226\"\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e NAS (No Age Statement) \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1292\" data-end=\"1350\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1292\" data-end=\"1303\"\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 700 ml \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1353\" data-end=\"1475\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1353\" data-end=\"1363\"\u003eCasks:\u003c\/strong\u003e First-fill sherry-seasoned European oak casks + refill sherry casks \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1478\" data-end=\"1608\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1478\" data-end=\"1489\"\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e “Mature Acorn” (naturally drawn from European oak and sherry wood influence) \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"com_Grant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44214490071063,"sku":null,"price":7499.99,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/3026\/9496\/files\/The_Macallan_Harmony_Collection_Guardian_Oak_X_Cirque_du_Soleil_-_Mothercity_Liquor.jpg?v=1769431472","url":"https:\/\/mothercityliquor.co.za\/zu\/products\/the-macallan-harmony-collection-guardian-oak-x-cirque-du-soleil","provider":"Mothercity Liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
