Description
Macallan 12 Year Old Double Cask embodies a rich legacy and innovative craftsmanship that defines this iconic whisky. Bottled at 40% ABV, this 750ml single malt whisky showcases a beautiful Harvest Sun color, reflecting its high-quality Sherry cask maturation.
The journey of the Macallan 12 begins with carefully selected American oak casks, shipped thousands of miles to Spain for sherry seasoning. After crafting and seasoning, these casks return to the distillery in Speyside, where they cradle the whisky for a minimum of twelve years. This meticulous process harmonizes the character of American oak with the traditional richness of European oak.
On the nose, the whisky reveals an exquisite bouquet of creamy butterscotch, toffee apple, and candied orange, complemented by the sweetness of vanilla custard and hints of fresh oak. Each sip offers a complex palate where wood spices like ginger and nutmeg dance alongside vibrant citrus, decadent caramel, and luscious raisins. The finish is equally captivating, as oak lingers gracefully, leaving a warm, sweet, and drying sensation that beckons for another taste.
The Macallan 12 Year Old Double Cask is perfect for any occasion, making it an ideal choice for both seasoned whisky enthusiasts and newcomers. Its approachable style, characterized by rich flavors and a honeyed mouthfeel, invites exploration and enjoyment. Whether savored neat, on the rocks, or as the foundation of a sophisticated cocktail, this single malt whisky promises to elevate any experience with its indulgent complexity. A true testament to The Macallan's unwavering commitment to quality and excellence, this whisky is more than just a drink; it is a celebration of tradition and innovation in every glass.
