The Macallan Double Cask Series Single Malt Whisky

The Macallan Double Cask series is a core range of single malts that balance the sweetness of American oak with the richness of European oak, both seasoned with sherry. This dual maturation process creates a whisky that is both smooth and complex, offering the best of both wood influences.

The series includes:

Double Cask 12 Years Old
Double Cask 15 Years Old
Double Cask 18 Years Old

Production Process

The Double Cask whiskies are aged in two types of oak casks:

American Oak Sherry Casks: Bring vanilla, citrus, and honey notes.

European Oak Sherry Casks: Add depth with dried fruit, spice, and chocolate.

Both cask types are seasoned with sherry in Jerez, Spain, before being used for maturation, ensuring a consistent influence of rich and sweet flavors.
