The perfect partnership of Oloroso sherry seasoned American and European oak casks creates the distinctive, warm character of this harmonious single malt. Macallan's skilled whisky making team optimise the right mix of European and American sherry seasoned oak casks to allow the delicate & indulgent flavours of American oak to take centre stage, while the more traditional Macallan characteristics of rich fruits, sherry & wood spice provide a reassuringly familiar backdrop.
