The night began as guests arrived. Entering through the Rubell Museum’s luscious garden, they were greeted upon arrival with a cocktail before being escorted inside the museum to the reveal room. Once inside, The Macallan brand ambassador, Katie Nahat, unveiled The Macallan M Copper, a 2022 release single malt whiskey. She spoke about the bottle and conducted a guided tasting for guests to follow, accentuating the liquor’s unique notes of pear and white peach with a smooth aftertaste of toasted oak.
