The Masters of Wood strike again.
With 2 centuries of Whisky-making under their belt, The Macallan is a force to be reckoned with. One of the "Big 3" Scottish Single Malts, the Speyside distillery produces a broad range of world-class Scotch that breaks records and gathers awards by the truckload wherever it sets foot. It's no wonder their signature light style has gathered such a vast and loyal following.
The folks at The Macallan are also known to be immensely meticulous about their casks, Sherry-seasoned ones in particular. The Rare Cask series has their Whisky Mastery Team selecting only the finest of those casks in order to craft truly exceptional expressions. Curated by The Macallan Master of Wood, the 2020 edition of the Rare Cask proves once again that all that diligence isn't for naught. One whiff of the rich raisin scent and a single sip of the intense, smooth, and luxurious liquid is enough to make anyone a believer.

Ruby Mahogany
Nose / Aroma / Smell
The super-inviting nose opens with delicate vanilla and raisin, slowly making way for fresh, fruity, and sweet apple, lemon, and orange.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
The rich sweetness with prominent raisin hits instantly, slowly uncovering layers of vanilla, citrus zest, and dark chocolate.
Finish
Finishes ultra-smooth with lingering rich notes.
