The full story & FAQBackground ยท serving notes ยท questions
Two oaks in balance
The Double Cask range pairs American oak and European oak, both seasoned with sherry in Jerez de la Frontera. Macallan describe it as blending the classic house style with the sweetness of American oak.
The whisky
The 12 Year Old is a rounded, warm single malt with a 'harvest sun' colour, showing fudge, citrus and soft spice alongside candied lemon and vanilla.
How to enjoy it
Lovely neat, and the vanilla sweetness also takes well to a single cube of ice or a highball with soda.
