Read More About the Brand Story

The Macallan was established in 1824, situated on the banks of the River Spey in Scotland. As a leader in single malt whisky, Macallan consistently adheres to its 'Six Pillars', which include its famous spiritual home 'Easter Elchies House', exceptionally small stills, and a meticulous, almost strict, cask selection process.

The development of the Double Cask series began with a deep understanding of wood characteristics. The distillery transports newly felled American oak to Spain, where they are handcrafted into casks and seasoned with sherry wine before being shipped back to Scotland. These casks, along with similarly seasoned European oak casks, nurture the Double Cask series. The 15 years of maturation allow the essence of both types of wood to reach their peak, offering both the richness of the European casks and the vibrancy of the American casks, culminating in Macallan's irreplaceable brand legacy.
