Description
Matured in both American and European oak casks that were previously used to age sherry, The Macallan 12 Year Old Double Cask pairs the indulgent fruit, caramel and oak spice character of European oak with the bright citrus and vanilla notes of American oak casks. A perfectly balanced and satisfyingly rich flavor experience, it greets with rich and festive aromas of fruitcake and oak spice on the nose while the palate brings caramel, nuts, and vanilla, leading to a citrusy finish.
Bottled at 80 proof, this expression has received a unanimous Double Gold Medal upon its release at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2017 and a Gold Medal & 95 points rating from the International Review of Spirits Tasting in 2017.
