New Macallan awakens from its 40 year slumber

The Macallan Sherry Oak 40 Years Old – 2017 release is a new limited edition single malt which marks the pinnacle of the Sherry Oak range.

This is the third non-vintage release of a 40-year old expression from The Macallan.

This rare single malt was matured for 40 years in an intriguing combination of three different types of sherry-seasoned cask to create its distinctive style – complex, with a natural deep copper colour, and rich and intense character defined by dried fruits, ginger, wood spice and cinnamon.
