- Description
- The Macallan's 18-year-old 2024 release matured entirely in sherry-seasoned oak casks from Jerez, building the signature Speyside richness and depth the brand is known for. Rich old oak, ginger, dates, dark chocolate, and soaked raisins define the profile, with the sherry cask aging creating a full body and concentrated sweetness balanced by subtle spice. This is the entry point to premium Speyside for drinkers seeking complexity and the house style that defined modern single malt.
