Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes

  • Tasting Notes by The Whisky Exchange

    • Nose

      Vanilla, raisins and with apples, oranges, and spicy ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove.

    • Palate

      Echoing the nose, but with spice up front supported by raisin and vanilla in the background.

    • Finish

      Chocolate and raisins fade to light notes of citrus zest.

  • Producer's Tasting Notes

    • Colour

      Mahogany.

    • Nose

      Opulent, yet soft and slightly meandering, picture an orchestra setting up: quiet vanilla with deep notes, already in tune; raisin bold and booming, though only in spells; chocolate a star performer, but not a standout; a sweet ensemble of apple, lemon and orange, beautifully balanced with a spicy quartet of root ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove. Then oak conducts, mature and elegant, with patience only time delivers.

    • Palate

      The spicy quartet leads, loud and full, unwavering in their performance. Raisin dares to temper - and succeeds!! – but oak takes control; timeless, polished, rich and resonating. Vanilla and chocolate compliment each other in the background.

    • Finish

      Light citrus zest, yet full and warming.

    Valentin,

    Macallan is pretty professional in making NAS trash nowadays. Bitter oak with bizarre aroma, a disgrace to Scotch Single Malt

    Anonymous,

    If you are interested in trying this delightfully sweet and spicy masterpiece this price cannot be beat. If you purchase direct from Macallan you'll pay and extra ?40. So for this price it is an absolute steal.

    Opulent and complex, full of details. Interesting ginger & peppery finish and sweet at the end. Meets producer's tasting notes.
