The Macallan 12 Years Old Sherry Oak Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml 40.0%

The Macallan 12 Years Old Sherry Oak – The Classic Rich Masterpiece

The Macallan 12 Years Old Sherry Oak Cask is a legendary single malt that forms the foundational pillar of The Macallan’s prestigious portfolio. Hailing from Speyside, Scotland, this expression reveals the unrivaled commitment to the mastery of wood and spirit for which The Macallan has been known since 1824.

Unlike the Double Cask or Triple Cask series, this iconic whisky is matured exclusively in hand-picked, Oloroso sherry seasoned oak casks from Jerez, Spain. This 100% sherry maturation process transforms the rich, fruity, and full-bodied 'new make' spirit into a classic single malt characterized by its profound wood spice, dried fruits, and a beautifully deep, 100% natural color.

Why Choose Macallan 12 Sherry Oak?

• 100% Sherry Matured: Aged exclusively in the finest sherry seasoned oak casks from Spain, delivering an intensely rich and classic flavor profile.
• Natural Color: The stunning rich gold hue is achieved entirely naturally through the interaction of the spirit and the oak wood—no artificial caramel coloring is ever added.
• The Collector's Choice: Widely regarded as the benchmark for sherried single malts and highly sought after by whisky enthusiasts globally.
