The Macallan Rare Cask has been created as an ode to beautiful natural color and complexity of flavor that The Macallan is known for. This is the quintessential expression of The Macallan’s Sherry oak tradition. The Macallan Rare Cask is crafted using liquid aged in first-fill Sherry-seasoned oak casks. Bob Dalgarno, The Macallan’s Master Whisky Maker, hand-selects the finest whisky from less than one percent of the casks maturing at the distillery. The result of this scrupulous selection process is a brilliantly rich, vibrant ruby-red whisky that proudly exhibits two of The Macallan’s greatest pillars: exceptional oak casks and natural color, reinforcing our position as the peerless spirit.
