Taste note

  • Colour:

    Ruby

  • Nose:

    Rich and complex aromas of dried fruits, dark fruits like cherries. Lots of sherry and raisins. Sweet and balanced notes of burned oak, vanilla, toffee, caramel, dark chocolate, figs, brown sugar and dates. Hints of cracked black pepper, nutmeg and cinnamon

  • Palate:

    Same rich and complex palate with flavors of dark rich red fruits and powerful sherry in combination with dried fruits. Then there are flavors of sweet vanilla, toffee, raisins, dark chocolate, figs, roasted almonds and dates. But don’t forget the lovely wood notes and spices in the end.

  • Finish:

    A long, rich and complex finish with lots of lingering flavors of dried fruits, dark chocolate, raisins and spices.

  • Conclusion:

    A powerful and complex expression of what Macallan has to offer. Really like this complex but balanced single malt. The richness and layers of this complex whisky makes you want to really dive in and explore more.
