Macallan Double Cask: A Double Delight for Whiskey Lovers"

Macallan Double Cask

This titan of the whisky world grew from humble beginnings as a small farm distillery by the River Spey. From those early days, one of the things that distinguished this pioneer of single malt was its sourcing of excellent casks – originally from Spain and later from the United States. The Double Cask range is a continuation of that legacy, each one a perfect marriage of Macallan’s heavyweight spirit and finest quality oak.

The Double Cask range combines rich, fruity Macallan whiskies matured in European and American oak casks seasoned with sherry. At 12-years-old, this entry in the series shows the classic distillery character lifted by the distinctive sweetness of American oak. The nose is filled with toffee apple, candied orange and vanilla custard, while the palate brings runny honey and raisins with lingering hints of sweet citrus.

After 15 years in a combination of Macallan’s specially seasoned casks, this expression emerges full-bodied and complex. Intense aromas of dried fruit, toasted nuts and oak spice radiate from the glass, leading into a warming palate of orange peel, vanilla, raisins and ginger. A wonderfully mature example of Macallan single malt.
This 18-year-old shows the Double Cask range at its best, combining the character of sherry-seasoned European and American oak casks to create a luxurious whisky full of hidden depths. The nose shows greater concentration of citrus, dried fruit and toffee than the younger entries in the series followed by a robust palate of clove-studded oranges, sultanas and rich oak. The finish is long and enticing, filled with fruit and spice. Unmistakably Macallan.
