The Macallan Rare Cask single malt Scotch whisky was introduced to the UK in mid 2015, after being launched in the US in late 2014. It’s comprised of whiskies drawn from 16 different Sherry cask styles, chosen by Macallan’s Master Whisky Maker Bob Dalgarno.
With a high-proportion of first-fill sherry malts aged from 17-21 years, Rare Cask yields opulent, yet soft aromas of vanilla, chocolate, nutmeg and clove. On the palate this malt’s age shines bright, with deep raisin notes tempered by nutty sherry and stone fruit that carry over into the warm, zesty finish.
