The Macallan Rare Cask Black 2022 – An exquisite journey in smoke, complexity and rarity
Smoke, depth and elegance from The Macallan
The Macallan Rare Cask Black 2022 is a remarkable single malt that stands out from the crowd. With its dark, smoky character and classic Macallan depth, it is a one-of-a-kind release that impresses from first whiff to last drop.
Created from just 1% of Macallan’s casks – specifically selected for their natural smoke and intense flavour profile – this edition is matured in premium first-fill sherry casks of both European and American oak, giving the whisky warmth, depth and complexity.

Fragrance
The nose opens with notes of dried fruit, smoked oak, vanilla and a touch of ginger. The smoke is refined and delicate – present but never overwhelming.
Taste
On the tongue, the taste unfolds elegantly with layers of dark chocolate, dried figs and warm spices. A silky smoky note accompanies the entire experience, creating a harmonious and deeply satisfying balance.
Aftertaste
The finish is long, warm and complex, dominated by notes of smoked wood, cocoa and a hint of leather. A true rounding off of a story-telling whisky.
Great edition for the collector
Presented in a stylish black decanter that frames the whisky's dark and mysterious soul, The Macallan Rare Cask Black 2022 is created for those who appreciate the extraordinary and want something truly special for their bar cabinet.
