A brilliant double-wood expression of The Macallan with fruit-forward profile and delivered at 43% ABV
Founded in 1824, The Macallan is one of the "Big 3"Single Malts in Scotland. Fortunately, they have achieved this scale without sacrificing quality. A change in UK labeling laws aced them out of their "Speyside" designation. But just because the British Parliament gerrymandered the "official" boundaries doesn’t mean Whisky-lovers have to pay any attention.
Their achievements are numerous — including setting the record price ever paid at auction for a single bottle of Scotch. They produce a very broad range of world-class Single Malt Whiskies that have a huge global following.
The Macallan is famous for their Sherry infused Single Malt masterpieces. Their Double Cask series explores the influence that a combination of Oloroso and American Sherry casks have on their Single Malt. The Spanish Oloroso casks bring the rancio and spice that made Macallan famous while the American Sherry casks accentuate the vanilla and fruit notes.
Eighteen years is a magic number for Single Malts where the maximum value of cask and Spirit are achieved. The Macallan Double Cask 18 Year Old is aged a full eighteen years in first-fill Sherry casks from Spain and the US. It’s a brilliant expression of The Macallan with a bit more fruit and delivered at 43% ABV.
