The Macallan 12 Yr Double Cask: Where Tradition Meets Balance

The Macallan 12 Yr Double Cask embodies the seamless union of two distinct worlds—European oak sherry casks and American oak sherry casks. This single malt Scotch whisky delivers a perfectly balanced flavor profile, where the rich tradition of sherry-seasoned cask aging meets the lighter, creamier nuances of American oak.

Crafted in the heart of Scotland’s legendary Speyside region, this 12-year-old whisky captures the essence of Macallan’s commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability.

A Tale of Two Casks

The name “Double Cask” reflects the dual maturation process that defines this whisky:

• American Oak Sherry Casks: Impart a creamy, honeyed sweetness with a gentle touch of vanilla and toffee.
• European Oak Sherry Casks: Add rich, warm flavors of dried fruits, spices, and chocolate.

Together, these casks create a whisky that is beautifully balanced, offering richness and sweetness in perfect harmony. This meticulous aging process ensures every bottle delivers the signature Macallan experience.
