I love Macallan 12. Love it. Goes so well neat, with a splash or on the rocks. My everyday go-to if im at a bar or restaurant.

Picked up a bottle of the 15 last week and wasn't feeling it. Mind you, it's a great Scotch, but not as smooth as the 12. I expected it to be even more amazing than the 12 but didn't find it that way.

My guess is the Oak vs Sherry cask makes the big difference.

Not worth twice the price in my opinion.

Yes, I prefer the sherry cask Macs over the Fine Oaks. More succulent and candy-coated goodness. But then again, when it comes to the Macs, I have a "sweet tooth."
