Description

The Macallan distillery, founded in 1824, is renowned for its single malt Scotch whiskies. This 12 Year Old Fine Oak expression is part of the esteemed Masters of Photography series, specifically the Ernie Button edition. It is matured for a minimum of twelve years in a complex combination of three exceptional oak cask types: sherry seasoned European and American oak, and American ex-bourbon casks. This triple maturation process contributes to its smooth, delicate yet complex character. This release was a limited edition, with a UK-only batch of 5000 bottles released in 2016.
