The Macallan 25 Year Old Anniversary Sherry Cask Scotch Whisky 2002 Release

25 years. Sherry Cask. 2002 Release. The Macallan — the 2002 vintage of The Macallan’s most iconic expression, the 25 Year Anniversary Malt, matured entirely in hand-selected sherry-seasoned oak casks from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, presenting the benchmark of sherry-matured Speyside single malt at its most historically significant and collectible.

The Macallan 25 Year Anniversary Sherry Cask is the expression against which all other sherry-matured Scotch single malts are measured. Produced exclusively in sherry-seasoned Oloroso and Fino casks, the 25 Year presents the full depth of what extended sherry oak maturation can produce: natural colour derived entirely from the wood, dried fruit and Christmas cake richness from the sherry influence, and the weight and structure that 25 years of Speyside maturation in premium oak delivers. No caramel colouring — natural colour only. The 2002 release is now over two decades from its original bottling. Browse all Macallan at Wooden Cork.
