The Macallan Rare Cask Black Bottle
Macallan Rare Cask Black Bottle
The Macallan Rare Cask Black is a very special whisky with flavors that are all their own. The combination of nutmeg, ginger, and beautifully polished oak makes for a complex and delicious flavor that is reminiscent of dates and dried fruits. It has a surprisingly dry finish and also hints of dates and raisins. However, the Macallan Rare Cask Black is not for the faint of heart.
This Exceptional Cask from the Speyside distillery is a time capsule. It was filled in the early 1950s and bottled on September 24, 2013. It was filled in a sherry butt and peated barley, and possesses the quintessential Macallan sherry aromas and flavors. This whisky has a long, lingering finish of oak and berries.
The Macallan Rare Cask Black is a new limited-edition release of the brand’s signature malt, distilled in a single cask and aged in sherry casks. This whisky has been photographed by Paolo Pellegrin, a world-renowned Magnum photographer. The bottle also includes a bespoke flask from the Macallan Visitor Centre. The brand’s rarest expression, Rare Cask Black is bottled at 48% ABV and comes with a bespoke flask engraved with the Macallan logo. It also features a stunning photography of the distillery’s pillars by Paolo Pellegrin.

The Macallan distillery bills its rare casks as the “ultimate luxury” single malt Scotch whisky. The 750 ml bottle will cost about $300. This whisky begins in the ancient oak forests of northern Spain. The cooperage Tevasa in Jerez crafts the casks, which are then filled with fresh Macallan whisky and seasoned with dry oloroso sherry for 18 months. Then, the empty casks are shipped to Scotland to be blended with fresh whisky.
The lack of transparency in the Macallan Rare Cask Black bottle is a defining characteristic of this new single malt from The Macallan. The dark, opaque bottle is completely opaque, making it difficult to see the liquid inside. The whiskey was aged in peated whisky and sherry casks, and there are only 100 barrels of the spirit in this limited edition. Unfortunately, the lack of transparency in the bottle means that it has a limited edition status.
