Macallan has released a new age statement single malt Scotch whiskey that has been aged for a minimum of 12 years in a blend of American and European Sherry wood. The proportion of American oak ex-Sherry barrels in this release is larger than in the 12 Year Old Sherry Oak, but there are no ex-bourbon casks, as there are in the 12 Year Old Fine Oak release.
