DUI Professional Drink Profile
The Macallan 12 Double Cask

BAC Simulation Context
DUI Professional uses drink profiles as structured inputs for alcohol dose, absorption timing, and elimination modeling. This profile describes the concentration and reference serving volume used when a full drink is added to a simulation.
1.50 oz at 43% equals about 1.08 U.S. standard drinks because one U.S. standard drink contains 0.6 fl oz ethanol. Review how these values are used in BAC simulation software or compare it against the full drink database.

The Macallan 12 Double Cask Background
The Macallan 12 Double Cask is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky from The Macallan Distillers Ltd in the Edrington portfolio. The official product material describes maturation in sherry-seasoned American and European oak casks. DUI Professional records a 1.5 fl oz serving at 43% ABV as the source-backed baseline for Edrington regional references; label review is recommended where market-specific ABV differs.
Professional Use
- Compare drink assumptions during DUI and criminal-defense case review.
- Document beverage concentration and volume used in BAC simulation reports.
- Review drinking-pattern inputs with forensic toxicology and expert-witness workflows.
- Support training examples for alcohol absorption, elimination, and retrograde extrapolation.
Standard Drink Math
A U.S. standard drink uses 0.6 fl oz of pure ethanol. This profile's 1.50 oz reference serving at 43% ABV contains 0.65 oz ethanol, equal to 1.08 standard drinks.
That ethanol dose is the starting point for BAC simulation software; consumed fraction, timing, absorption, elimination, and body-composition assumptions are modeled separately. Compare other entries in the drink database or use the related profiles below.
