The Macallan Cask Strength was introduced to the USA during 2002 to appeal to both current Macallan drinkers and lovers of cask strength whisky. Later, other markets including Japan were scheduled.
Macallan Distiller, Bob Dalgarno and his team of nosers laboured long and hard to select the right balance of first and second fill sherry oak casks from Spain that when combined created a Macallan of tremendous strength, power and complexity. Conscious that whisky at natural cask strength of almost 60% abv can be overly pungent Bob has managed to balance the obviously high alcohol with classic clove like spices and dried fruits.

We have one bottle only of this 100% Sherry matured edition to sell which is also non-chill filtered. Apparently destined for the Japanese market, a similar release with slightly lower ABV rated 94 points from Jim Murray. This one weighs in at 59% Alc./Vol. The deep ruby red colour is quite spectacular.
