Taste note

  • Colour:

    Mahogany

  • Nose:

    Bold and luscious with rounded honey, sweet apple, cinnamon, coffee and tiramisu. Orange zest follows a background of backed pears, ginger and nutmeg. Robust, polished matured oak comes at the end in contrast to the subtle green wood and floral undertones.

  • Palate:

    Rich and intense flavours of citrus fruits, vanilla, toffee, butterscotch, figs and nutmeg. Complex wood spices, green cloves and dried fruit dates open up immediately, with a calm following the intense beginnings, leaving a sweet and vanilla viscous mouth coating.

  • Finish:

    Fruity with oaky sweetness, long and lasting.

  • Conclusion:

    With this Edition, Macallan shows of its new distillery. The distillery is something right out of a fairytale. Its beautifully designed and worth visiting. A lot of wood was used making this new distillery and this is something we can taste back in their whisky., but with great balance and delicateness.
