43% ABV (86 proof) | 750mL | 18 years | Speyside single malt | Matured exclusively in sherry-seasoned oak casks from Jerez, Spain | Gift set with two glasses — The Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Cask is the benchmark sherried Scotch: 18 years in hand-picked sherry-seasoned oak casks from Jerez, drawn from the distillery at Easter Elchies in Speyside. This gift set pairs the bottle with two Macallan-branded whisky glasses in presentation packaging worthy of the whisky inside. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
The Macallan's reputation is built on wood — the distillery invests more in its sherry-seasoned oak than any other in Scotland. Eighteen years in those casks gives the Sherry Cask its signature depth: dried fruit, spice and polished oak in a light mahogany natural color. Among Scotch whiskies, the 18 Year Sherry Cask is the reference point for sherried single malt.
Tasting notes
