Sherry-seasoned oak sits at the heart of the expression, bringing concentration, spice and depth alongside the whisky's entirely natural ruby-mahogany colour. Released in limited quantities worldwide, Rare Cask places the emphasis firmly on the character of the casks rather than a stated age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2465\" data-end=\"2861\"\u003eBottled at 43% ABV, it opens with vanilla and concentrated raisin, followed by fresh apple, citrus and polished oak. The palate is rich and velvety, with sweet dried fruit moving into dark chocolate, vanilla and orange zest before a long, smooth finish. It is a particularly full expression of The Macallan house style, balancing sherry-seasoned richness with freshness and finely integrated oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2863\" data-end=\"3111\"\u003eFor the 2024 release, The Macallan continued its collaboration with Simple Minds guitarist Charlie Burchill, using music and guitar-making to explore the shared role of wood in shaping sound, aroma and flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Soft, rich and fruit-led\u003cbr\u003eVanilla and concentrated raisin accompanied by fresh apple, lemon, orange and gentle seasoned-oak nuances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Rich, velvety and layered\u003cbr\u003eIntense sweet raisin develops into vanilla and dark chocolate, balanced by fresh citrus zest and restrained oak spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long, smooth and luxurious\u003cbr\u003ePersistent raisin and dark chocolate with lingering citrus, vanilla and gentle oak warmth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrand - Macallan\u003cbr\u003eStyle - Single Malt Scotch Whisky\u003cbr\u003eCountry - Scotland\u003cbr\u003eRegion - Speyside\u003cbr\u003eABV - 43%\u003cbr\u003eSize - 700ml\u003cbr\u003eCask Strength - No\u003cbr\u003ePeat Level - Unpeated\u003cbr\u003eFeatures - Small Batch\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Macallan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44326502629463,"sku":"MAC-RARE-24","price":549.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/32b77240-9c7d-47ec-815f-cd7f88346483.webp?v=1790045744","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/the-macallan-rare-cask-single-malt-scotch-whisky-700ml-2024-release","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
