Why buy Whisky Macallan Rare Cask Black

Although it tells a story that differs from the spirits and the rest of the Macallan barrels, the most characteristic thing is that it tells a story of uniqueness. Less than 100 barrels have been filled and matured at The Macallan distillery, which remained unaltered in the brand's dark cellars under the careful supervision of Master Whisky Maker until it was deemed fit for release. This whisky is as unusual as it is limited, as there are very few bottles from the less than 100 casks filled with this whisky, when these are emptied into the corresponding bottles, no more will be produced. With its richness and great body, The Macallan Rare Cask Black is an unusual smoked liqueur that tells a story of creativity and innovation.

Tasting notes. Sight, smell and taste

The Macallan Rare Cask Black features a color reminiscent of leaves falling in autumn. On the nose, we are talking about an intense whisky from peat smoke, on a perfect combination of dried fruits, nutmeg, ginger, oak, figs and raisins. The taste of this whisky reveals a dry smoky touch that develops softer tones of oak. The finish is long and fruity with a touch of smoked wood.

Pairing. How to taste it

In order to know how to pair whisky, we have to take into account that whisky must be the companion of the food, and that it must never exceed the taste of the latter. Bearing this in mind and that we are talking about a smoked whisky, the best way to drink this whisky is to accompany it with a good cut of meat prepared on the grill, to which we can add some sauces to add flavour, such as a mustard sauce, pepper sauce or some spice that has a b flavour. We can also taste this whiskey in a glass of whiskey alone or with a couple of ice cubes if we like it refrigerated.

A little bit of history about Macallan Rare Cask Black...

Each of Macallan's malt singles reveals the commitment to the mastery of wood and the distillation process for which The Macallan brand has been known since its founding. This reputation for seeking the extraordinary serves as a testament to the unwavering commitment to treating sherry barrels as a fundamental part of the Macallan single malt. The entire process is developed under the careful supervision of the Master of Wood so that they meet the specifications of the brand's Master Distillery and its team. These barrels are aged once they are filled in the same barrels for the time necessary to obtain the desired aging, which is why we chose oak barrels, as they are the ones that come closest to giving us the quality, color and aromas and flavors that we expect for our whiskey.
