Absolute perfection
-
The first thing that popped out to me was the mouth feel. The spice and sherry really come alive on the first sip – it's pretty smooth. Just a hint of smoke and a complete absence of peat, which I'm glad about. Good scotch to introduce American whiskey drinkers to. Good value.
-
An exceptional Scotch, especially for the price. I would 100% suggest either letting your ice melt just a bit or adding just a drop or 2 of water to open the flavours up
-
Excellent. Both my wife and I loved it.
-
This is a smooth whisky with little spice. Do as the Scots do and add a few drops of water - really opens up the flavor!
-
So very nice.
-
If you like whiskies with sherry, this is the whisky for you.
-
I have noticed less of a vanilla or toffee nose and more spice. I seem to have noticed this just before the changeover to new packaging.
-
Nice one the aroma and flavor always keep me remembering
-
Macallen 12 taste great! I like a drink that does the job! This does it and is very smoothe!
-
Best Scotch I've ever tasted.
-
Having now tried a wide variety of Scotches, I keep coming back to Macallan 12 as the standard. It’s a classic for a reason. They got it 100% right. Every sip goes through a little journey of flavors and ends with a pleasant bit of fruit taste that sits at the back end. No harshness, no little bit that sticks out as not quite there. It’s my absolute favorite and has a permanent spot in my collection.
-
It’s simply one of the best whiskies I have ever tried in my life. It’s perfect with a dash of cold water only
-
Wet, mossy forest aroma. Sweet, smoky and spicy on the tongue. Very smooth and very good. I'm in love.
-
Some good scotch, taste similar to woodford double oak.
-
Oh this be a wonderful scotch. When the bottle is empty, your eyes will tear up. The smoky sweetness lingers very pleasantly (especially if you have a moustache) ;)
-
The nose on Macallan 12 smells like a band aid with hints of sulfure. However, the palate is viscous, deep, and rich just like a fine red wine with a steak.
-
An excellent 12 year. My preference for a libation.
-
Wonderful aroma and taste
-
Simply the best 12 year old scotch you can buy. I love trying all different scotchs and I keep coming back to this one as the gold standard. The less people drink sherry, the more rare this will become. I forget how good it is, then I get a bottle for Christmas and fall in love all over again. I also got the double cask strength one and the 12 year old regular one is miles better. Absolutely brilliant!
