Taste note
-
Colour:
Gold
-
Nose:
Citrus fruits, open softy. Apple and pear lead to lemon zest, toffee and oak.
-
Palate:
Wood spices and ginger soften to fresh apples, sweet vanilla and soft oak tones.
-
Finish:
Good length. Warming fruit and spices. Soft and dry.
-
Conclusion:
A balanced and smooth Macallan with a lot of fresh flavors but a bit too overpriced for what you are getting.
