The Macallan 25 Year Old Sherry Oak, 2026 Release is the newest annual bottling of the 25-year-old in The Macallan's Sherry Oak Collection. It spends a quarter century in sherry-seasoned oak casks, predominantly European oak, and is bottled at 43% ABV with its natural colour.

The 2026 release comes in a new look: a red capsule and a red-trimmed label on the bottle, presented in a pale oak box with a decorative border marked "Sherry Oak Collection, 2026 Release."

The Macallan frames the 2026 profile around raisins, crystallised ginger and rich oak: layers of dried fruit, warming spice and oak built over 25 years in sherry wood. Pour it neat in a Glencairn or copita glass, add a drop of water if you like, and give it a few minutes to open up.

The Macallan has distilled on the Easter Elchies estate in Speyside since 1824, and sherry-cask maturation remains the house signature. Pair it with The Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Oak and 12 Year Old Sherry Oak for a full Sherry Oak flight.
