Macallan Rare Cask Black 0.7 liters 48% vol.

The Macallan is a single malt whiskey distillery in Easter Elchies, Craigellachie, Banffshire, Scotland.

The Macallan was one of the first distilleries in Scotland to be legally licensed. The production of The Macallan is based on decisive influences from Spain, North America and Scotland as well as their respective natural raw materials in combination with traditional methods and craftsmanship.

All of the whiskeys get their color 100 percent from the wood of the barrels in which they are stored. Since wood is a natural product, every tree is different and therefore gives the whiskey different flavors and colors as it matures. The assembled barrels from northern Spain are then flavored with sherry for 18 months and then shipped to Scotland, where they are bottled with the fine brandy from The Macallan.

The Macallan story is a story of wood, one that tells the story from the acorn to the barrel. This incredible passion for wood has shaped a new style for The Macallan. A darker, smoky, mysterious character named Rare Cask Black. Less than 100 barrels that age in the Macallan Distillery contain this unusually smoky Macallan.
