Macallan Single Malt Scotch Whisky Collection

We stock The Macallan from the 12 Year Old Double Cask through to limited collector releases. All genuine imported stock, delivered nationwide across the Philippines.

Why Macallan Costs What It Does: The Wood

Most distilleries buy their casks. The Macallan commissions its own — oak selected in Spain and America, air-dried for years rather than kiln-dried, coopered to its specification, then seasoned with sherry in Jerez before a single drop of whisky goes near them.

Cask cost is reportedly the largest single expense in making Macallan, which is unusual in the industry. It is also why the whisky is naturally coloured — no caramel added — and why sherry character runs through the whole range rather than appearing as a finish at the end.

The Ranges, Explained

Double Cask

American oak and European oak, both sherry-seasoned. American oak brings vanilla and sweetness, European brings dried fruit and spice. The balance between them is the house style, and this is where to start.

Available at 12, 15 and 18 years — the 12 at 40% ABV, the 15 and 18 at 43%.

Sherry Oak

European sherry-seasoned oak only. Richer, spicier and more dried-fruit driven than Double Cask. The most traditional expression of what Macallan is known for.

Triple Cask

Adds ex-bourbon casks to the two sherry types. Lighter, more citrus and vanilla, less sherry weight — the least typical Macallan, and the one to try if you find the range too rich.

Fine Oak

The distillery's answer to a fair criticism: that everything it made was sherried. Triple cask including ex-bourbon, and the lightest and most delicate expression in the catalogue.

Limited editions and collector releases

Including the Night on Earth series — three releases celebrating New Year traditions, each with packaging by a different artist — and anniversary bottlings using cask types the core range never sees.

Which Macallan Should You Buy?

• Your first Macallan: the 12 Double Cask. Balanced, honeyed, and the reference point for everything else.
• If you like sherried whisky: Sherry Oak.
• If you find sherry too rich: Fine Oak or Triple Cask.
• For a milestone or a gift: the 18 Double Cask. Boxed, age-stated, and universally recognised.
• For a collector: the Night on Earth series or an anniversary release — these appreciate in a way the core range does not.

How to Drink It

Neat, in a nosing glass, at room temperature. A few drops of water rather than ice — Macallan's sweetness and dried fruit are exactly what cold suppresses. Give it a minute in the glass before the first sip.

Dark chocolate is the most natural pairing in the catalogue for the sherried expressions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Double Cask, Sherry Oak and Triple Cask?
The cask types. Double Cask uses American and European sherry-seasoned oak. Sherry Oak uses European only — richer and spicier. Triple Cask adds ex-bourbon casks, making it lighter and more citrus-led. Same age, genuinely different whiskies.

Why is Macallan more expensive than other single malts?
Cask cost. The distillery commissions bespoke oak, air-dries it for years and has it sherry-seasoned in Jerez before filling. That is a far more expensive way to source wood than buying used casks.

Is Macallan naturally coloured?
Yes. No caramel colouring is added — the colour comes entirely from the cask, which is why the sherried expressions are so dark.

Are these genuine imported bottles?
Yes. All stock is sourced through legitimate import channels, stored with care, and packed securely for transit.
