Product details
The Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Oak 2017 is a distinguished Speyside single malt defined by The Macallan’s longstanding focus on exceptional oak cask selection and meticulous craftsmanship. Matured exclusively for a minimum of 18 years in selected Sherry-seasoned European oak casks from Jerez, Spain, this expression develops the rich, layered character for which the Sherry Oak series is known. The extended maturation allows the oak and mature malt character to develop in harmony, resulting in a deeply colored and complex expression with a light mahogany appearance. The 2017 bottling represents a classic vintage-era presentation of The Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Oak, prized for its depth and traditional oak-led character.
On the nose, The Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Oak 2017 reveals dried fruit and ginger, accented by citrus, vanilla, and cinnamon. The palate is rich and concentrated, bringing together dried fruit, spice, clove, orange, and oak-derived smoky notes. A full, lingering finish follows with dried fruit, sweet toffee, ginger, and a subtle smoky oak character, creating a long and richly layered conclusion.
