The Macallan Sherry Oak 18 Years Old (2025)

An unexpected ode to richness and refinement, The Macallan Sherry Oak 18 Years Old (2025 Release) is a timeless single malt, matured exclusively in hand-selected sherry-seasoned oak casks from Jerez, Spain. Over nearly two decades of patient ageing, this expression is shaped by oak and time into a whisky of profound depth, harmonising The Macallan’s signature style with notes of dried fruit, spice, and chocolate richness.

Crafted for moments of indulgence and celebration, this bottling is an enduring symbol of The Macallan’s mastery of wood and spirit—an elegant union of heritage, craft, and sherry-seasoned oak.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Deep and complex. Aromas of dried fruit, raisin, and prune are enriched with cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg. Hints of dark chocolate, orange peel, and polished oak weave through with warmth.

Palate: Full-bodied and resonant. Flavours of rich fruit cake, black cherry, and fig unfold alongside ginger, toasted almond, and cocoa. Sherry sweetness balances with oak spice, creating a velvety texture.

Finish: Long and lingering. Waves of dried fruit, warm spice, and chocolate fade slowly into sweet oak and a touch of smoke, leaving a lasting impression of elegance.

The Macallan Sherry Oak 18 Years Old (2025 Release) is not simply a whisky—it is a timeless benchmark of sherried single malt. A rare harmony of oak, fruit, and spice, crafted for those who revere tradition and embrace refinement.
