Macallan Rare Cask Black

The Macallan Rare Cask Black 2022 – Smoke, depth and elegance in a limited edition

The Macallan Rare Cask Black 2022 is a rare chapter in Macallan's history. This single malt stands out markedly from the distillery's usual style by uniting the rich sherry casks with a discreet, yet distinct smoky character – only 1% of The Macallan's casks have this unique profile. The result is an exclusive whisky created for connoisseurs seeking the exceptional.

The whisky is matured in hand-picked first-fill sherry casks of European and American oak, which adds depth, complexity and warm spices. The smoky element comes exclusively from casks containing whisky with a natural smoky character – not from peating the grain, as is otherwise traditional in smoky whiskies.

Aroma
The aroma opens with dried fruit, smoked oak and subtle notes of vanilla and ginger. A refined aroma, where the smoke is present but never dominant.

Taste
Deep and balanced. Dark chocolate, dried figs and spiced oak meld with a soft, silky smoky note. An intensely layered taste experience with fantastic structure.

Finish
Long and warm with lingering notes of smoked wood, cocoa and leather. An elegant and harmonious finish.

The Macallan Rare Cask Black 2022 is presented in a stylish black decanter that reflects the whisky's dark, smoky character. An ideal addition for the collector or the experienced whisky enthusiast who appreciates exceptional craftsmanship and rare flavour nuances.
