Macallan – Rare Cask 2020 Release Whisky

Every cask of exceptional single malt whisky maturing at The Macallan Estate has its own personality, with little nuances which make them unique. ​

From time to time Macallan’s whisky makers come across casks maturing in their warehouses which stand out from the others in a very particular way. ​These hand-selected casks are a rare and special discovery.

Rare Cask is created from oak casks which exhibit incredibly rich, smooth complexity, highlighted through a sweet raisin note. These rare casks of The Macallan have an entirely natural deep ruby mahogany colour, and an intense and highly complex flavour profile.

Nose: Soft notes of vanilla with rich raisin, followed by a sweet fusion of fresh apple, lemon and orange.

Palate: An intense sweet raisin dominates before giving way to vanilla and dark chocolate, with layers of light citrus zest.

Finish: Long, rich and velvety.
