The Macallan Gold Double Cask is the released edition of The Macallan Gold from the 1824 series, which was discontinued in early 2018 to make way for the Double Cask, Triple Cask Matured and Sherry Oak ranges. This expression is drawn from a combination of American and European oak sherry-seasoned casks. Although never officially announced, it is widely believed to be discontinued as it is no longer available on The Macallan Website.
Despite the label stating that this is a Highland malt, it is widely accepted that it is actually a Speyside malt with all the characteristics that go with it. Both Aberlour and Glenallachie are just a short drive away.
