Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
great nose, with something of old Macallan of, well, of old. Some burnt wood, toffee, pecan pie, brown toasts, a drop of molasses, then more and more maltiness that would come together with a few floral notes (meadow flowers), thick ale and butterscotch. A minimally salty smokiness
restaurant Palate
very good drop, no questions. There's the traditional Macallan complexity that quite a few recent bottlings had forgotten about, with some spicy marmalade, chestnut and heather honeys, pancake sauce, drop of miso soup, dried apricots, apricot jam, mirabelle jam, all that while the honeyness keeps growing. Do they have beehives at the mothership? I mean, at the Distillery?
timer Finish
pretty long, honeyed and toffee-ed. The expected coffee/chocolate/marmalade trio in the aftertaste
