SWEET OAK. SOFT SPICE. TOFFEE.

DOUBLE CASK 30 YEARS OLD

A perfectly balanced single malt matured for 30 years in sherry seasoned American and European oak casks. The Double Cask Collection tells the story of an incredible wood journey, from the vast green forests of northern Spain and the French Pyrenees and the lush forests of Ohio, Missouri and Kentucky, to create the perfect harmony.

This release showcases our unwavering commitment to uncompromised excellence as oak influence is the single greatest contributor to the quality, natural colour and distinctive aromas and flavours of our single malt whiskies.

DOUBLE CASK 30 YEARS OLD

A taste characteristic of The Macallan portfolio, the apple takes centre stage in this image, reminiscent of the great Flemish still life paintings from the 17th century.​

“Double Cask 30 Years Old is a charming combination of
cinder toffee, honeycomb, vanilla and red apples – and I
wanted to depict the vibrant colours and varying textures
of these luscious flavours in the image, reminiscent of
the great Flemish still life paintings from the 17th
century.”

MARKS OF DISTINCTION

FROM THE CASK

Every Macallan single malt reveals the unrivalled commitment to the mastery of wood and spirit for which The Macallan has been known since it was established in 1824. It is an expression of our enduring desire to go beyond ordinary, to seek out the extraordinary, and create peerless single malts.

Our reputation for the extraordinary is characterised by the exceptional oak casks for which The Macallan is renowned. Sourced, crafted, toasted and seasoned under the watchful eye of the Master of Wood, the hand-picked casks are delivered to the demanding specifications of the Whisky Mastery Team. It is the oak that makes the greatest contribution to the quality, natural colour and distinctive aromas and flavours at the heart of this single malt whisky.

Once filled, the maturing spirit remains undisturbed in the same casks for the necessary number of years it needs to be worthy of its destined Macallan expression. It is these oak casks that make the greatest contribution to the quality, natural colour and distinctive aromas and flavours which lie at the heart of The Macallan single malt.
