Macallan 12 Years Double Cask
The Double Cask fully matured in Sherry Casks. Exclusively for Macallan, American oak casks were filled with Sherry and were used for the maturing of the Whisky. Additionally to the American oak casks, also classic Sherry casks made out of European oak were used. For a long time, Double Cask was only available in Asia. Today, this Whisky is part of the regular assortment of Macallan, but in scarce quantities.

All tasting notes
Mild sherry dominates, dried fruits, oranges, vanilla and caramell. Well balanced
Taste:
Peppar at first followed by honey and citrus
Finish: Peppar and sweetness, just a hint of dryness in the texture. No bitterness
Comment: lovely complex nose but a bit simole in the taste. The sherry matured 12 year old are better.
