Macallan 12 Year Old Sherry Oak Cask Scotch Whisky
the Macallan Sherry Oak 12 Years Old reveals the unrivalled commitment to the mastery of wood and spirit for which The Macallan has been known since it was established in 1824. When matured exclusively in Oloroso sherry seasoned oaked casks from Jerez, Spain, our rich, fruity and full bodied 'new make' spirit is transformed into a classic single malt. The sherry seasoned oak delivers a rich and complex single malt characterized by spice and dried fruit flavours.
Described by Paul Pacult 'simply the best 12 Year Old single malt around', The secret of The Macallan lies in defiant adherence to traditional methods and ingredients. The continued use of finest Golden Promise barley and the insistence on sherry oak casks from Jerez, Spain are just two of the pre-requisites for perfection.
