Good vanilla smell. Sweet and strong
-
Honestly, this scotch is only okay at first taste. It's sweet and has an orange citrus taste. But after the initial, there is a tobacco taste that hangs in your mouth. I don't smoke so it surprised me that I enjoyed this taste. The finish has a spicy burn that is actually very enjoyable as long as you don't take too big of a drink. Too pricey for me for this scotch.

the best scotch I have ever tasted

This is an excellent whisky although not the be all-end all many claim it to be. Thoroughly enjoyable. The heavy sherried quality gives it a syrupy kind of sweetness that, much like a heavily peated whisky I have to be in the mood for. Great after dinner dram especially after a big steak. Highly recommended but try others in the same price range and you will be pleasantly surprised about how many great whiskies there are in this price range. This applies especially to us Americans who seem to this this is "it".

On the nose I can smell vanilla, dried fruit, and the sherry sweetness on the spot! On the palate it's wonderful; it's spicy but also sweet like honey. You can definitely taste the sherry and the dried fruit instantly. It's the smoothest whiskey I've had so far. It's much better than the Macallan 15yo old. 5 Stars!!

On the rocks, its just amazing!

My first purchase was the 10, which I found very good. The 12 is beyond amazing. The subtle sweetness, coupled with the smooth finish has won me over. YUM...LOL

its great

One of my favorite sherry''d whiskys. Well balanced, easy drinking. You can still find it, but the prices are going up. For that price I think this is one of the best whisky's in the world.

Fantastic product the whiskey you open have one glass then another, really could drink it all, very smooth full and full of flavour a real beauty

I''m more of a bourbon guy, but after trying this I''m definitely considering switching to it as my go to drink. Smooth, good aroma, overall a pleasant experience. Picked up a bottle right after my first time having it.

My favourite. Unfortunately now a victim of Macallan''s lunatic marketing strategy, and consequently the price just keeps rocketing. That said, by pulling this Macallan have forced me to broaden my horizons and I''m finding some real gems elsewhere in Speyside and even beyond. D''you think that''s why they did it?

Working for the company I understand how precious this fine dram is, unrivalled at this moment, get some before it disappears!
-
An absolute delight. Smokey and smooth, rich and refined. This is the scotch your grandfather would be proud to see you drinking during/after a long day at the office.

I always LOVE the Macallan-12, but we only have the GOLD/etc... series in Canada now. I have to go to the USA to smuggle a few bottles back at 62$US/bot. Alas, I have to supplement it with Glendronach-12 (or Aberlour-12) from time to time, to avoid depleting my bottles to quickly !
-
Tasted this one by chance and could not get it out of my mind - an incredible contrast to the peats I was familiar with (e.g. Laphroaig). Lucky for me The Whisky Exchange delivers to the antipodes! Unluckily I have one stashed away for the boy as a coming of age gift ...
-
You just want to finish the bottle and go to get another one! That how good it is. For me at least..

This is definitely a mature man,s Scotch! Enjoy my friend>
