The Macallan Colour Collection 12 Years Old
Part of The Macallan’s Colour Collection, the 12 Years Old expression embodies the distillery’s dedication to natural colour, sherry-seasoned oak maturation, and timeless craftsmanship. Exclusively matured in sherry-seasoned oak casks from Jerez, Spain, this release reflects the signature richness and elegance of The Macallan while showcasing the natural amber hue derived solely from oak cask influence.
On the nose, it offers fresh citrus, vanilla, and toffee, layered with hints of oak spice and dried fruits. The palate is smooth and well-rounded, delivering flavours of honey, creamy vanilla, and orange zest balanced with gentle spice and oak warmth. The finish is medium in length, with lingering sweetness and subtle sherried notes.
Bottled at 40% ABV, The Macallan Colour Collection 12 Years Old is both an accessible introduction to the series and a refined single malt in its own right. Presented with artwork by renowned artist Javi Aznarez, it highlights the harmony of natural colour and flavour that defines The Macallan style.
