Profile & Story

The Macallan was founded in 1824 on the Easter Elchies estate in Speyside, Scotland, and has built its reputation on maturing spirit predominantly in sherry-seasoned oak casks. Sherry Oak 12 Years Old, described by the distillery as a true Macallan classic, is led by European oak seasoned with sherry in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, and is positioned as a complex, approachable single malt.

Tasting Notes

Rich gold in color, Sherry Oak 12 Years Old exudes flavor notes of dried fruits, oak spice, and nutmeg, with a smooth, silky texture that carries through to a long and warming ginger finish.

Pairing Recommendation

As a sherry-matured Speyside single malt, it is traditionally savored neat or with a splash of water as a contemplative after-dinner dram.
