The Macallan Experiences
Leaning into the popularity of The Macallan's single malt
whiskies on board, Oceania Cruises is launching a series of
experiences taking the brand to new heights.
- The Macallan Diamond Bar Cart invites guests to discover
The Macallan in an engaging way. The mobile bar cart will feature
iconic expressions as well as exclusive offerings like The
Macallan Smoker, which brings theater and ritual to smoking
cocktails by utilizing flavor blasters to infuse the drink.
- The Macallan Flight Program takes guests on a
journey of flavor and discovery exploring what makes The Macallan
the most valuable single malt whisky in the world. This opportunity
to gain an understanding of the unique, complex flavors will be
available in group or individual tasting experiences.
- The Macallan Chocolate Pairing will be a decadent
pairing of guests' choosing including: Macallan Quest & Milk
Chocolate, Macallan Lumina & Chocolate Truffles with Fruit,
Macallan Terra & White Chocolate, and Macallan Enigma &
Dark Chocolate.
Brugal 1888 Doblemente Añejado Rum
Offerings
The Edrington partnership also brings aboard entertaining and
educational mixology experiences for guests featuring Brugal 1888
Doblemente Añejado Rum.
- Brugal Rum & Tea at Sea will teach guests about the
history of pairing rum and tea since the 17th century while
providing them a hands-on mixology experience to mix, match, and
taste-test a series of complementary flavors. A number of Tea
Pairings – from aperitivo-style pre-meal cocktails to highball
light and sparkling cocktails – will also be available at
bars on board.
- Nearly Neat Serving Cart with Brugal 1888 is a concept
designed to bring a sophisticated alternative to traditional
cocktails with an exclusive Nearly Neat menu featuring Brugal 1888
in The Chocolate Orange, The Night Cap, The Solstice, and The
Reviver.
- Ice Cream and Brugal Cocktails will be available at
pools, restaurants, and lounges for guests to cool off with a
decadent treat. This latest trend in specialty cocktails brings a
sweet twist to popular favorites such as an espresso martini,
caramel milkshake, and Aperol spritz.
