Cocktail Ideas with Macallan Double Cask 12

We do not recommend cocktails as the default for a premium single malt, but if you truly want it for cocktails, keep the mix minimal:

• Old Fashioned: whisky, bitters, a small amount of sugar, orange zest
• Highball: whisky, chilled soda water, lemon peel
• Whisky Sour: whisky, lemon juice, simple syrup, optional egg white

After this list, the main point is balance. The cocktail should support the whisky, not cover it.

This pairing works well with aged cheeses, roasted nuts, and sweet treats that aren't quite so sweet themselves. It also pairs well with roasted fowl and cured meats that aren't too rich or heavy in flavor. If you like to indulge in the pleasure of cigar-smoking occasionally, the H.Upmann Half Corona would pair nicely with the mild and sweet tendencies of the whisky itself, without overpowering it.
