The Macallan DOUBLE CASK 12 YEARS OLD 700ml 40%
The Macallan Double Cask 12 Years Old forms part of our Double Cask range which marries the classic Macallan style and the unmistakable sweetness of American oak. This is a fully rounded single malt in perfect balance, with flavours of fudge, citrus and soft spice.
DOUBLE CASK BY ERIK MADIGAN HECK
Each expression within our Double Cask collection is a complex sensorial journey, beautifully balanced by European and American Oak, sherry seasoned in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.
Photographer Erik Madigan Heck has presented his visual interpretation of Double Cask 12 Years Old inspired by classic, Flemish still life paintings of the 17th century.
Notes of candied lemon citrus and smooth fudge are just two of the defining flavours of The Macallan Double Cask 12 Years Old.
Looking closely, subtle hints of vanilla can be seen in the still life, with the two-tone purple chiffon fabric a nod to the marriage of American and European oak sherry seasoned casks, the defining feature of the Double Cask collection.
An exciting new age statement expression from Macallan whisky that’s matured in a combination of American and European Sherry oak for a minimum of 12 years. Here, the proportion of American oak ex-Sherry casks is higher than in the 12-year-old Sherry Oak, but no ex-bourbon casks are used as they are in the 12-year-old Fine Oak release.
Nose: Classic dried fruit territory, if less intense than the Sherry Oak expression. Aromatic butterscotch too.
Palate: Creamy and honeyed with some thick-cut marmalade, cinnamon and warm pastries.
Finish: Fruity with vanilla and sultana.
