Created by the Lochlea distillery at the farm once home to Robbie Burns, this new Lowland distillery produces 100% of its whisky from barley grown and harvested on-site. This season small batch release sees 100% ex-bourbon barrels selected from higher up in their warehouses, with the faster maturation apparent. A juicy red apple and ripe pear fruit is followed by flavours of vanilla pod and almond oil, with a crisp and refreshing pine forest note in the background. An exciting new release from the family at Lochlea.

This exceptionally balanced single malt is matured in three different types of oak cask.  First fill American oak barrels bring sweet caramel notes, tempered with hints of warm spices from ex-sherry casks, whilst traditional oak casks impart subtle depth.  The result is a smooth malt, with delicate spice and sweet treacle toffee notes.  

Made using barley grown on Macallan's Speyside estate, distilled once a year in a single week, this single malt has been matured exclusively in sherry seasoned oak butts and hogsheads. Warm, comforting aromas of cinnamon, dried fruits, sweet lemons and caramel fill the nose, and the palate initially offers notes of warm spice, dry oak and fresh figs. Sweet orange and dried fruit flavours develop slowly, alongside delicate citrus and sweet toffee.

Macallan Estate is presented in a striking box inspired by the landscape of Speyside. Featuring an inlay of hand-cut slate, this unique box reflects the sense of place found in the whisky.

The Macallan Double Cask 12 years old is 100% Sherry seasoned, and 100% Natural Color, in keeping with The Macallan?s tradition, but unique in the fact it is defined by the unmistakable prominence of the American oak style. The Macallan brings new oak from America across thousands of miles to Spain, where casks are crafted and sherry seasoned before traveling to our distillery in Speyside, where they are filled and matured for at least 12 years. These whiskies are then harmoniously united with those aged in exceptional sherry seasoned European oak casks.

Nose: This burnished gold spirit presents a lemon citrus nose, the orange peel and an interlacing sweetness that softens but doesn't eliminate the zest. A quiet note of vanilla is followed by dark chocolate - more assertive, yet not overly so - with a lingering floral and light oak notes.

Palate: Citrus and boiled sweets rule the palate, along with hints of ginger and cinnamon, while soft oak tones reveal toasted apples.

Finish: The finish is medium sweet, malty and slightly dry.

#N/A

Macallan's Triple Cask range was launched in 2018, taking the place of the Fine Oak range. This is the entry level expression from the series, matured for 12 years and drawn from a combination of European sherry seasoned casks, American sherry seasoned casks and American ex-bourbon casks.

Nose: Gingerbread, vanilla essence, wafts of buttered toast and clotted-cream-topped scones.

Palate: Raisins, sultanas and stem ginger. Citrus begins to develop on the palate, with a touch of dark chocolate.

Finish: Subtle cedar and honey linger on the palate.

Another stellar addition to the Double Cask range from Macallan, it's a 15 Year Old expression! The single malt spent its years in a combination of American and European oak, both of which were seasoned with Oloroso sherry. What did you expect from Macallan? A wonderful balance of creamy sweetness and fiery spice to be found in this one.

Nose: Butterscotch and plump raisin, with spiced apple crumble and oak spice.

Palate: Dried fruits galore, with a dusting of cinnamon, candied ginger and orange peel.

Finish: More warming ginger alongside a drizzle of honey and buttery caramel.

Each single malt within the range is an exploration of flavour and texture, from vibrant and fresh through to rich and intense, concluding with a whisky that signifies the essence of The Macallan. The Macallan Enigma represents the pinnacle of the Quest Collection journey in this rich and intense whisky.

A rich and intense single malt offers up mature oak with subtleties of cinnamon, vanilla and dried fruit.
