The most recent ‘A Night on Earth’ expression is being released as part of The Macallan’s 200th anniversary. It pays tribute to the region in Spain where The Macallan procures its sherry-seasoned oak barrels, which it uses for aging and finishing its single malt whiskies.

Matured in a combination of American and European sherry-seasoned oak barrels, it’s known for its nose of dark chocolate, toasted vanilla beans, oak, and dried fruit. The palate is a mix of candied orange peels, toffee, candied nuts, sweet sherry, oak, and gentle wintry spices. The finish is a warming mix of sherry sweetness and light baking spices.

“Jerez plays a crucial role in The Macallan’s past, but also present and future,” Whisky Maker Steven Bremner said in a press release. “As a whisky maker, having been able to tell part of that story through a whisky has been wonderfully rewarding. A combination of European and American sherry seasoned casks has enabled us to capture the flavors, traditions, and María’s memories of New Year in Jerez de la Frontera, the home of sherry wine.”
