The Macallan TIME:SPACE Sherry Cask 44.8% ABV 0.7l in a gift box online kaufen

The Macallan TIME:SPACE Sherry Cask 44.8% ABV 0.7 l is an exclusive 20-year-old Speyside single malt Scotch whisky that combines The Macallan’s time-honoured whisky-making traditions with an exceptional blend of sherry casks. Founded in 1824, The Macallan Distillery in Scotland is renowned for its meticulous selection of high-quality oak casks. As the third instalment in the limited-edition TIME:SPACE Collection, this bottling showcases a special connection between Scotland’s Speyside and the Spanish sherry region of Jerez de la Frontera. The whisky was initially matured in selected sherry-pre-filled oak casks, predominantly made from European oak, before the matured distillates were blended together in special casks from the Valdespino bodega.


What makes The Macallan TIME:SPACE Sherry Cask so special is the use of a selection of the first 200 oak casks that were pre-seasoned with Valdespino’s own sherry. The casks, crafted in the distillery’s own cooperages, were shipped to Scotland in 2024 to mark The Macallan’s 200th anniversary. This additional phase of sherry cask blending underscores the distillery’s close ties to Spanish cask-making. This limited-edition 20-year-old single malt is presented at 44.8% ABV and with its natural colour in a 0.7-litre bottle with high-quality gift packaging. This makes it one of the renowned Scottish whisky producer’s special collector’s editions.
