Description
Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 43%
A bottle of the 2020 release of Macallan 18-year-old Double Cask which has, as the name suggests, been assembled using Macallan malt whisky aged in both American oak and European oak casks, which have been previously seasoned with Oloroso sherry.
The result is a sweet, easy-going after-dinner Macallan single malt whisky with dried fruit flavours from the sherry seasoning and a bit of warming spice and vanilla from the American oak.
This Macallan 18-year-old Double Cask is stylistically in the middle between the full sherry oak matured Macallans and the Triple Cask Fine Oak style.
