Two Casks, One Exceptional Whisky

The Macallan 15 Year Old Double Cask is the expression that bridges the gap between the distillery’s two great cask traditions. Matured for a minimum of 15 years in a combination of hand-selected sherry-seasoned European oak casks from Jerez, Spain, and sherry-seasoned American oak casks, the Double Cask brings together the rich, spiced depth of European oak with the lighter, sweeter character of American oak to create a whisky of exceptional balance and complexity. The result is a Macallan that is simultaneously rich and approachable a perfect expression of the distillery’s mastery of oak.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Elegant and inviting honey, vanilla, and a gentle sherry sweetness with notes of citrus, ginger, and soft dried fruit
• Palate: Smooth and well-rounded toffee, ripe orchard fruit, and a warming spice that builds gently over a foundation of honeyed sherry richness from both oak traditions
• Finish: Long and warming with lingering honey, dried fruit, and a smooth, dignified oak warmth
