The Macallan Double Cask Range
The Macallan Double Cask Range is formed from a harmonious union of American and European oak sherry seasoned casks. Together they combine to create a perfectly balanced single malt Scotch whisky with a distinctive warm character that is punctuated with a contemporary soft sweetness.
Double Cask tells the story of a journey which brings together two different worlds. The voyage begins in the vast green forests of northern Spain and the French Pyrenees, where The Macallan sources its European oak. New oak from the lush forests of Ohio, Missouri and Kentucky in America is also transported thousands of miles to Spain, where both types of oak are hand crafted into casks that are filled with sherry.
Once seasoned, the casks are shipped to The Macallan Estate on Speyside where they are filled with new-make spirit. Following years of slumber, The Macallan's Whisky Mastery Team use their skill and expertise to select the best balance of spirit from both the American and European oak sherry seasoned casks to create Double Cask.
The result is a perfect partnership, with the sherry seasoned American oak imparting delicate flavours of vanilla, while the European oak delivers the subtle and unmistakeable spice and classic style of The Macallan.
The Macallan Double cask 12 years old is a warm character perfect harmony of American and European sherry-seasoned casks, harvest sun colour, create creamy butterscotch with a hint of toffee apple and vanilla custard flavour.
Displaying a golden butterscotch hue, The Macallan Double Cask 15 Years Old imparts aromas of dried fruit, toffee and vanilla, and delivers a warming finish with a creamy mouthfeel.
The Macallan Double Cask 18 Years Old has a rich amber honey tone, and imparts notes of dried fruits, ginger and toffee. A warm oak spice finish is balanced by citrus flavours of sweet orange.
麥卡倫雙雪莉桶威士忌
麥卡倫雙雪莉桶系列是以美國白橡木與歐洲紅橡木雪莉桶完美交融平衡，創造出一款完美平衡的單一麥芽蘇格蘭威士忌，在獨特的溫潤特性中展現柔和香甜。
雙雪莉桶系列述說著兩個世界的味覺旅行。這段旅程始於麥卡倫歐洲紅橡木的產地－－西班牙北部和法國庇里牛斯山的大片森林。來自美國俄亥俄州、密蘇里州和肯塔基州蔥鬱森林的白橡木也運送至數千英里外的西班牙，在當地將這兩種橡木以手工製成木桶，裝填入雪莉酒。
潤桶完成後會送至位於斯佩賽的麥卡倫莊園填入新酒。靜置多年後，麥卡倫威士忌釀酒團隊將以精湛的技術與專業知識，從兩種雪莉桶嚴選出最平衡的威士忌原酒，釀造完美平衡的雙雪莉桶。
最後的成果是一段完美的夥伴關係，美國白橡木賦予香草的細緻風味，歐洲紅橡木則傳遞更多辛香料風味且強而有力的酒體的經典麥卡倫風格。
麥卡倫雙雪莉桶12年超乎想像帶有成熟均衡的風味，耀眼的陽光金酒色，透露豐收般的美好層次，以香草卡士達醬、太妃糖蘋果等甜美口感為核心。
麥卡倫雙雪莉桶15年呈現出奶油糖般金黃酒色，散發出果乾、太妃糖和香草香，柔滑的口感滿口生香，溫潤的餘韻繚繞不去。
麥卡倫雙雪莉桶18年呈現鮮豔的琥珀蜂蜜色，散發乾果、生薑和太妃糖香氣。橡木辛香的溫潤餘韻因為甜橘風味顯得更加平衡。
