The Macallan
View Full Description [+ Read More]
The Macallan is a single malt Scotch whisky distillery located in Craigellachie, Speyside, Scotland, long recognized for its oak cask maturation program. The distillery relies heavily on hand-selected sherry-seasoned oak casks from Spain, a practice central to expressions like the Macallan 12 Year Old Sherry Cask and the Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Oak, released in both 2020 and 2021 vintages. The Fine Oak 21 Year Old introduces American and European oak influence alongside sherry casks for a layered maturation profile. The limited Edition series, represented here by Edition 2, Edition 4, and Edition 5, each reflects a distinct cask composition developed in collaboration with whisky makers. The Classic Cut 2017 offers a higher-strength, annual release bottled without chill filtration, while the 12 Year Old Sherry Cask serves as the foundational Macallan expression against the extended aging of the 18 and 21 year offerings.
