SHERRY OAK PAR ERIK MADIGAN HECK
La collection Sherry Oak est un voyage sensoriel intemporel. Magnifiquement dominé par le chêne européen, vieilli en fûts de sherry de la région de Jerez de la Frontera, en Espagne. Le photographe Erik Madigan Heck a présenté son interprétation visuelle de la cuvée The Macallan Sherry Oak 30 Years Old, en capturant les notes de figues mielleuses, d'orange chocolatée et un soupçon subtil de cannelle.
The Experience
Couleur
"Sherry Oak Collection has a rich and complex character led by our sherry seasoned European oak casks. It is these exceptional oak casks that transform our robust and fruity new make spirit into exceptional single malts that boast entirely natural colour. Enjoy notes of succulent dried fruits and sweet spices, with a depth of flavour that intensifies through the range.”

Sherry Oak and David Carson
Rich and complex, The Macallan Sherry Oak Collection is influenced by sherry seasoned European oak casks. Each single malt is characterised by natural mahogany hues and interlocking notes of succulent dried fruits and ginger, with a depth of flavour and wood spice that intensifies through the range.
The Macallan reimagined is seen through the lens of artistic translator, David Carson, and celebrates the journey of our sherry seasoned oak casks.
Stories Behind the Artwork
For the Sherry Oak 30 Years Old artwork, a deep red frame surrounds an image of one of The Macallan warehouses shrouded in darkness. The 3 and 0 are positioned to evoke lips reaching the rim of a glass. The icons for Sherry Seasoning and Exceptional Oak Casks also form the age statement. A stack of casks in a dark warehouse contrasts with bold reds, while the dark background represents the darkness of the warehouse as whisky matures.
The journey of our whisky's colour begins in the cathedral-like bodegas of Jerez, where our casks rest for months, absorbing their rich sherry seasoning. Once filled with The Macallan’s new make spirit, these seasoned casks begin “the long sleep”, maturing for years in the cool darkness of our warehouses at The Macallan Estate.
Here, in complete darkness, the spirit slowly evolves, infusing the colours and flavours of the sherry seasoned oak that define the unmistakable character of The Macallan.
Sherry Oak Collection
Each of the four single malts in the Sherry Oak Collection is perfectly led by sherry seasoned European oak casks which interact with robust new make spirit from our Curiously Small Stills at The Macallan.
Matured respectively for 12, 18, 25 or 30 years on our 485-acres of The Macallan Estate, in the heart of Speyside, Scotland.
The Artistic Translator
Meet David Carson
We have partnered with David Carson across The Macallan Timeless Collections. We asked him to go beyond the world of digital design and work with his hands again, using paper, paint and elements from nature, making each art piece unique and unrepeatable. His unconventional and incomparable style characterised by freedom spreads, overlapping photos, mixed and altered fonts and a total rejection of the grid brought him worldwide acclaim and transformed the design industry forever. He remains to this day resolutely grid free, unrivalled in his creativity and devoted to his craft.
Sherry Seasoned Excellence
The Macallan’s exceptional European and American oak casks spend time in our Spanish bodegas during which time they are filled with sherry wine to season them.
Over the coming months, sherry wine gently rests within the exceptional oak casks. These sherry seasoned oak casks are then emptied, and transported to our Distillery here in Speyside, Scotland. Upon arrival at The Macallan Estate, these exceptional sherry seasoned oak casks are filled with our robust and fruity new make spirit.
Over years our whiskies will mature, drawing aromas, flavour and natural colour from these sherry seasoned oak casks. An exceptional story of sherry and wood.
