The Macallan Double Cask 12 Years Old is a remarkable expression that beautifully combines the classic Macallan style with the sweetness inherent in American oak. This single malt is well-rounded and balanced, showcasing flavors of honey, citrus, and ginger.
The harmonious character of this whisky is achieved through the use of Oloroso sherry seasoned American and European oak casks. This careful selection allows the rich, traditional Macallan notes of fruits, sherry, and wood spice to shine, while the American oak adds a layer of sweetness.
On the nose, you will find enticing notes of creamy butterscotch, hints of toffee apple, candied orange, and vanilla custard, complemented by the aroma of freshly cut oak. The palate reveals a delightful combination of honeyed sweetness, wood spices, and citrus, rounded out with raisins and caramel. The finish is warm and sweet, with lingering oak that leaves a lasting impression.
This whisky is best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to fully appreciate its complex flavors.
Please drink responsibly.
