The Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Oak is a distinguished single malt whisky that forms a quintessential part of the distillery's revered Sherry Oak Range. Meticulously matured for a minimum of 18 years in exclusively sherry-seasoned oak casks sourced from Jerez, Spain, this whisky epitomizes richness and complexity. The oak casks impart a symphony of flavors including ginger, dark chocolate, and dates, while the nose reveals an intricate blend of dried fruits, ginger, citrus, vanilla, and cinnamon. The palate delights with an array of dried fruits, spices, orange, cloves, and a whisper of wood smoke, culminating in a long, satisfying finish replete with sweet toffee, ginger, and a subtle hint of smoke. This annual release is a sterling testament to The Macallan's unwavering dedication to quality and tradition, encapsulating the quintessential Macallan essence. Bottled at a refined 43% ABV, this whisky is elegantly presented in a bespoke presentation box, making it a prized addition to any collection.
The Macallan distillery, a pillar of Speyside, was founded in 1824 and has since garnered acclaim for its exquisite single malt whiskies. It rose to prominence in the 1980s with a series of sherry-matured vintage single malts, building on the legacy of earlier licensed bottlings. The Macallan Double Cask range, which includes this 18 Year Old expression, harmonizes the classic Macallan style with the sweetness imparted by American oak. This superb whisky is aged in a combination of American and European Sherry oak casks, resulting in a beautifully dark flavor profile with rich, intricate aromas.
