A limited-edition release of Macallan 12 Year Old Double Cask, with a gift boxed in a metal tin featuring a photograph of a cask by Magnum photographer Alec Soth.
Exclusively sherry seasoned whisky is matured in a combination of American and European oak for a minimum of 12 years to create this distinctive Speyside Single Malt. Matured in a combination of American and European Sherry oak almost 50:50, though slightly weighted towards American oak ex-Sherry casks. New oak is shipped from America across to Spain, where expert Coopers craft casks. These casks are then sherry seasoned before traveling to the Speyside distillery to mature for twelve years.
These whiskies are then united with counterparts aged in sherry seasoned European oak casks. The result is, as you might expect nothing short of seamless.

Tasting Notes:
Creamy butterscotch and toffee apple on the nose, with vanilla, candied orange and new oak notes. The palate brings honeyed wood spices alongside citrus, raisins and caramel. The finish is warm and sweet with aspects of oak lingering on.
