The fifth entry in The Macallan Edition series is a vatting of American oak casks bottled of natural color at 48.5% ABV.

Labels submitted to the TTB have revealed The Macallan Classic Cut 2019 Limited Edition, matured in sherry seasoned oak casks and bottled at 52.9% ABV.

It appears as though The Macallan will be turning Classic Cut into an annual release. Labels submitted to the TTB have revealed The Macallan Classic Cut 2018 Limited Edition, matured exclusively in sherry seasoned oak casks, bottled at 51.2% ABV, and described as having notes of “citrus, sweet vanilla and spice.”

We recently heard a rumor about Macallan having plans to re-release The Macallan Cask Strength this summer. After digging around the TTB website, we stumbled upon an entry for “The Macallan Classic Cut”, a 2017 limited edition bottled at 58.4%. All signs point to this being the bottle we’ve been hearing about, though it appears Macallan will be re-releasing it under a different name.
