Sensory Description:
On the nose, this whisky opens with creamy butterscotch, toffee apple, candied orange, and vanilla custard, lifted by a delicate touch of oak. The palate is rich and indulgent, balancing honeyed sweetness with wood spice, citrus zest, raisins, and caramel. A medium finish lingers with warm oak, gentle spice, and a softly drying sweetness. Its natural golden color reflects the influence of both sherry-seasoned American oak, imparting vanilla and fresh fruit, and European oak, adding depth, spice, and dried fruit complexity.

Distiller's Background:
The Macallan, established in 1824 in Speyside, has long been regarded as one of Scotland’s most prestigious distilleries, celebrated for its unwavering dedication to quality and craftsmanship. With an unmatched focus on wood management, The Macallan sources its oak from America and Northern Europe, seasoning the casks with sherry in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, before aging whisky in Scotland. This unique journey from forest to glass ensures both authenticity and depth of character. Under the direction of Master Whisky Maker Kirsteen Campbell, The Macallan continues to define the standard for rich, sherried single malts while embracing innovation and artistry in design and presentation.
Serving Suggestions:
Best savored neat at 18–20°C to experience its full spectrum of aromas and flavors. A splash of water opens its layers of spice and fruit, while serving over a large cube of ice softens the wood and caramel notes. It pairs beautifully with dark chocolate, roasted almonds, or a rich fruitcake, and is equally at home alongside roasted duck or aged hard cheeses, where its balance of sweetness and spice enhances each bite.
The Macallan Double Cask 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a testament to the artistry of balance, where American oak’s vanilla and citrus sweetness meets European oak’s spice and dried fruit depth. Refined, approachable, and complex, it is an essential whisky for both seasoned enthusiasts and those beginning their journey into single malts.
