Product description
Rare Cask is the quintessence of The Macallan’s commitment to exceptional wood management and showcases two of the Macallan’s greatest and most defining strengths – sherry seasoned oak and natural color.
Crafted to showcase complexity and depth Rare Cask is drawn from the broadest spectrum of casks used in maturation on the Macallan Estate. The combination of sherry seasoned American and European oak casks, a high proportion of them first fill, deliver an exquisite and unmistakably woody whisky with a rich hue. Here is Macallan Rare Cask 2023 edition composed of sherry seasoned European and American oak casks and bottled at 43% abv. (Official tasting notes.)
