Macallan 15 Year Old Double Cask
The Macallan Double Cask 15 Years Old is a masterful single malt whisky that achieves a harmonious balance by combining the influences of two distinct oak types. It matures in hand-crafted casks seasoned with dry Oloroso sherry, with American oak imparting delicate notes of vanilla, citrus, and butterscotch, while European oak contributes the trademark subtle spiciness that defines The Macallan’s character. After 15 years of maturation, these two exceptional whiskies come together to create a distinctive single malt with a sweeter, warmer flavor profile, making it a truly exceptional and harmonious whisky.
