Product Details
Macallan Rare Cask Black is crafted from fewer than 100 exceptionally rare smoky peated casks. These casks represent a tiny fraction of the stocks at The Macallan Distillery and, once used, will not be reproduced. The higher 48% ABV further amplifies its complexity and structural presence, making it a must-have for sherry cask lovers and collectors seeking unique flavors.

Since its founding in 1824, The Macallan has been world-renowned for its obsession with wood. The Rare Cask Black series pays tribute to those 'hidden gems' within the warehouses. In Macallan's history, smoky spirits are extremely rare, usually associated with specific distillation methods or peat treatments from earlier eras.
Encased in a luxurious all-black bottle, this design symbolizes the mystery and uniqueness of the liquid. The whisky making team must hand-select a fraction of casks with a 'smoky soul' from thousands of maturing barrels. These casks impart classic dried fruit and spice notes while integrating a deep smokiness rare to the Speyside region. Rare Cask Black is not just a bottle of whisky; it is a rare, dark, and magnificent chapter in Macallan's craftsmanship.
