Macallan 12yo Double Cask 2022 0.7l

The Macallan 12yo Double Cask 2022 0.7l is a blend that sits at the heart of Scottish single malt whisky, offering a refined interpretation of maturation in two types of casks that allows you to explore the synergy between sweetness, citrus freshness, and a controlled oaky structure. Produced by the historic distillery The Macallan, founded in 1824 in the heart of Speyside, this label embodies a corporate identity built on obsessive care for the raw material, a balance between tradition and innovation, and a belief in the value of casks as a vehicle for character. The production philosophy is based on listening to the wood: American ex-bourbon casks provide a soft, vanilla-y, and creamy base that enlivens the entry, while European ex-sherry Oloroso casks introduce depth, dried fruit, and a light spicy note, creating a dynamic that avoids excess and demands harmony. The result is a distinctive offering, easily recognizable among other espressos in the same category: the initial impression is one of luminous balance, with a soft sweetness that reveals orange zest, honey, and a hint of toasted wood, without ever becoming overpowering. On the palate, The Macallan 12yo Double Cask 2022 displays a medium body and a silky texture, where vanilla is tempered by hints of candied citrus, delicate ginger, and a hint of bitter cocoa, leading to a finish that remains clean and persistent without harshening the palate. This wine can accompany moments of meditation or conviviality, positioning itself as a reliable reference within The Macallan range, capable of interacting with a structured tasting or a casual session with friends. The Speyside denomination and attention to detail make this vintage particularly suited to those seeking character without ostentation: without barriers, but with depth, a choice that favors quality raw materials and a maturation that respects time. In line with STELT's positioning, it is an authentic, sober and elegant presence, capable of accompanying without errs, offering a measured and memorable sensory experience.
