he Macbeth Series by Livingstone is a Scotch Whisky collection selected and bottled by Elixir distillers. This remarkable collection is presented with character notes by renowned whisky writer David Broom, and illustrations by one of Europe’s most famous illustrators, Sir Quentin Blake.
In a career spanning seven decades, Sir Quentin Blake has illustrated over 300 books including classic works by Roald Dahl such as The BFG, Matilda, and Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. He rarely produces any commercial illustration and his work is highly collectable.
Young Siward is an elegant single malt from Highland Park. Limited to 650 bottles, this whisky was matured exclusively in refill hogsheads for 18 years.
Notes about Young Siward from Oliver Chilton of Elixer Distillers:
“While his father was a warrior, Young Siward was only just old enough to go to war, and so we needed a whisky with all the promise of a young man, full of potential. The typical heather smoke and honey of Highland Park is on show in this elegant whisky, but without the robust sherry notes so often associated with its age. Instead, honeysuckle and ginger spice suggest youth and promise.”
The Macbeth Collection is an exclusive whisky series created by Livingstone and whisky specialist Elixir Distillers, inspired by William Shakespeare’s tragedy Macbeth. The collection consists of 42 unique whiskies from various Scottish distilleries, each representing a character from the play.
