The Macallan 12 Year Old Double Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a beautifully balanced Speyside malt that unites the sweetness of American oak with the richness of European oak. Matured for twelve years in sherry seasoned casks, it delivers the hallmark Macallan depth with a lifted, honeyed elegance and precise oak spice.
Crafted to showcase natural colour and a smooth, rounded style, this whisky layers vanilla, citrus and toffee over sultanas, baking spice and gentle oak. It is an effortless pour for slow evenings, refined gifting, and after-dinner moments when only a classic Speyside single malt will do.
Tasting Notes
Appearance
Bright golden amber with a polished honey glow.
Nose
Inviting aromas of honey, vanilla pod and toffee apple, followed by orange zest, sultanas and soft cinnamon. Subtle oak brings nutmeg, toasted almond and a hint of ginger.
Palate
Silky and rounded. Flavours of crème caramel, baked apple and milk chocolate glide into raisins, candied citrus and delicate spice. American oak sweetness lifts the profile, while European oak adds sherried depth and structure.
Finish
Medium to long, gently warming, with lingering notes of sweet oak, vanilla cream, ginger spice and dried fruit.
How to enjoy
The Macallan 12 Year Old Double Cask offers harmony, texture and classic sherry seasoned character. Enjoy neat, with a splash of water, or over a single cube, and pair with dark chocolate, fruit cake or spiced desserts for a seamless after-dinner experience.
