The American oak imparts notes of vanilla and honey, while the European oak contributes rich dried fruit and warm spice, bridging bourbon-style sweetness with classic sherried Scotch richness at The Macallan's Speyside estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistillery: The Macallan, Speyside, Scotland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAging: 12 years, sherry-seasoned American and European oak casks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eABV: 43% (86 Proof), natural color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNose: Creamy butterscotch, candied orange peel, and subtle oak spice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePalate: Rich sherry sweetness with honey, vanilla, and warm baking spices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Smooth and lingering, with sweet oak, citrus, and gentle spice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEarning a Double Gold Medal at the 2017 San Francisco World Spirits Competition and 95 points from the International Review of Spirits Tasting, this well-balanced entry point into The Macallan lineup is ideal for neat sipping, letting its sherry-cask complexity unfold slowly without overwhelming the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat does Macallan Double Cask 12 Year taste like?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCreamy butterscotch and candied orange on the nose, with honey, vanilla, and baking spice on the palate, finishing smooth with sweet oak and citrus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eHow is this different from Macallan 12 Year Sherry Oak?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDouble Cask uses more American oak in its sherry-seasoned cask program, giving it a lighter, more dessert-forward sweetness than the richer, more traditional Sherry Oak expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eIs Macallan 12 Double Cask good for sipping neat?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, its balanced 43% ABV profile and natural color make it well suited for neat sipping.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Macallan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42629341970516,"sku":"MAC-DC12-750","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0657\/1691\/2212\/files\/af3433f1-0100-4519-816d-847206855605.webp?v=1789029295","url":"https:\/\/estatesliquor.com\/products\/macallan-double-cask-12-year-old-speyside-scotch","provider":"Estates Liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
