A set of rare Macallan surfaced in a Bonhams Whisky auction in Hong Kong last week, much to the delight of the participants. The complete set of The Macallan in Lalique Six Pillars Collection was actively bidded for and finally sold for HK$3,797,500. This is possibly one of the first set of rare Macallan sold at an auction after news that a Macallan vintage bottle located in St Moritz, Switzerland couuld be fake.

The six decanters made with Lalique crystal were produced between 2006 and 2016. Each of them are in limited quantity with age statements of 50, 55, 57, 60, 62, and 65, released in that order. All of the bottles are highly sought after individually, but to get all six in a complete set is pretty much an achievement. Congratulations to the winner of the bid!
