Tasting Notes:

Distillery: Macallan 

Nose: Rich and inviting with an intriguing complexity. The dark fruits, smyrna raisins, aged prunes, sour amarena cherries, are wonderfully complemented by a gentle Christmas spice note of cinnamon and cloves. With time, soft fresh floral notes emerge from under the weighty fruits.

Palate: Follows the nose pretty closely. The rich sherried notes are not overbearing, but rather fresh and vibrant. The whisky has a beautiful, mouth coating texture. The spices are a little more prominent but balanced by a lovely honey sweetness. A hint of toasted oak reveals its long cask aging.

Finish: Long and satisfying. The rich complexity of the nose and palate continues to the very end. As the spice fades and the fruits slowly retreat, the sweetness intensifies, leaving a delightful, warming aftertaste. A great, rewarding dram
