MACALLAN 12 YEAR DOUBLE CASK: A SPEYSIDE SYMPHONY IN TWO ACTS
Uncork a world of unexpected flavor with the Macallan 12Year Double Cask, a single malt whisky that masterfully blends Speyside tradition with American oak intrigue. It’s not just a drink; it’s an experience, a symphony in two acts that unfolds with every sip.
Act I: The Speyside Legacy
Crafted in the heart of Speyside, Scotland, the Macallan 12 Year Double Cask begins its journey in exquisite sherry casks. These casks, once cradling rich Oloroso sherry, imbue the spirit with their deep mahogany hues and infuse it with notes of dried fruit, spice, and a hint of nuttiness.
Act II: The American Oak Twist
In a daring departure from tradition, the whisky then spends additional time in virgin American oak casks. This unexpected twist adds a touch of vibrant youthfulness, injecting notes of vanilla, honey, and citrus into the Speyside symphony.
The Grand Finale:
The result is a rich and complex whisky that’s bursting with character. On the nose, a delightful dance of aromas greets you: dried fruit and sherry mingle with vanilla and citrus, hinting at the flavor adventure to come. As the whisky meets your palate, a wave of honeyed sweetness washes over, followed by a warm embrace of oak spice and raisin. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving you with a lingering memory of Speyside sunshine and American oak charm.
Beyond the Glass:
This versatile whisky shines in any setting. Savor it neat or on the rocks to fully appreciate its intricate tapestry of flavors. Also feeling adventurous? Craft a luxurious Old Fashioned or Manhattan, letting the Double Cask’s unique character take center stage.
A Toast to Innovation:
The Macallan 12 Year Double Cask is a testament to The Macallan’s commitment to pushing boundaries while upholding tradition. It’s a whisky for those who appreciate the unexpected, who find joy in discovering new flavor combinations.
