The Macallan Folio 5 is a part of The Macallan's Archival Series, a limited-edition distillery bottling introduced in 2020. The series recognizes the distillery's historical advertising campaigns. In particular, Folio 5 is inspired by an ad highlighting a "Luggy Bonnet," a specific type of deerstalker cap.
The story from the advertisement involves a sportsman missing out on a Macallan offer due to his hat's earflaps covering his ears. This narrative is echoed on the bottle with the phrase "Keep this knot firmly tied," suggesting the cap's knot should remain tightly fastened.
The Archival Series Folio 5, packaged at 43% ABV in a 700 ml bottle, was initially available only from the distillery. The packaging includes a book-shaped tin box and a hardback book, providing more context to the featured advertisement's story.
With a release of just 3250 bottles, the Macallan Folio 5 is a significant part of The Macallan's Archival Series. It holds value for whisky collectors and investors alike.
