{"product_id":"macallan-20-year-old-time-space-sherry-cask","title":"Macallan 20 Year Old Time : Space Sherry Cask","description":"\u003cp\u003eFollowing the release of TIME : SPACE and TIME : SPACE Mastery in 2024 to celebrate the distillery's 200th anniversary, The Macallan introduced the collection's third expression, TIME : SPACE Sherry Cask, in 2026. What sets this release apart is the distillery's first use of oak casks seasoned with Valdespino sherry. In 2023, The Macallan's parent company, Edrington, acquired a 50% stake in Grupo Estévez, the parent company of Valdespino, increasing its involvement in sherry production and the cask-seasoning process. This 20-year-old release is a significant outcome of that partnership.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whisky was initially matured in Sherry-Seasoned Casks, predominantly European Oak, alongside whisky matured in American Oak. It was then transferred to a selection of the first 200 Valdespino Sherry-Seasoned Casks that arrived at The Macallan in 2024 for a subsequent marrying period. The bottle retains the TIME : SPACE Collection's distinctive circular design, while the yellow presentation box takes inspiration from Valdespino's Palomino grapes and the Andalusian sunshine of Spain, reflecting this collaboration with the sherry producer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOfficial Tasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raisins soaked in sherry, figs and Medjool dates, with frangipane, cinder toffee and a touch of caramelised nuts.
