The full story & FAQBackground · serving notes · questions
An annual high-strength series
Classic Cut is The Macallan's yearly limited edition, bottled at a higher strength than the core range. The series began in 2017, and each edition is built from a different cask recipe, so no two years taste alike.
The 2023 edition
For 2023 The Macallan married American oak casks that previously held bourbon with sherry-seasoned European oak. The Macallan calls the colour Golden Barley; at full strength pear leads, and with water almond biscotti comes forward.
How to serve it
Start neat, then add water gradually. The Macallan notes that one measure of water brings it down to around 40% and shifts the balance towards almond and biscuit.
