Matured in a combination of ex-bourbon American oak casks and sherry-seasoned American oak casks, The Macallan Classic Cut 2021 is bottled at cask strength (51% ABV) to showcase the influence of these distinct wood types. This annual limited edition was crafted by The Macallan Whisky Mastery Team to highlight sweet lightness from bourbon casks balanced by the depth of traditional sherry cask richness.
