The Macallan Triple Cask 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Experience the harmonious complexity of The Macallan Triple Cask 12 Year Old. This exceptional single malt Scotch whisky is matured in a unique combination of three exceptional oak cask types: European sherry seasoned oak casks, American sherry seasoned oak casks, and American ex-bourbon oak casks. This intricate maturation creates a smooth, delicate, yet complex spirit with notes of citrus, vanilla, light spice, and the signature Macallan richness.

Finish: The finish is moderately long and smooth, with the citrus and sweet spice notes fading gracefully alongside a hint of oak. It's a beautifully balanced and versatile Macallan expression that highlights the influence of its triple cask maturation.
