Taste note
-

Rich cherry.

Rich and aromatic. An initial burst of treacle toffee uncovers raisin and blood orange followed by deep aromas of apple, sprinkled with ginger, cinnamon and chocolate. Layers of dark vanilla embellished by soft burnished oak.

Palate:
Rich dried fruits, with raisin strongly to the fore. Viscous layers of sweet ginger, figs and cigar leaf, before the oak emerges showing the complexity of age.
-
Finish:
Long and embracing.

Conclusion:
A beautiful Lalique decanter with whisky inside the decanter even older than 60 years old. This unique collection piece is the fifth in a series of six unique pillars collection. This one is called Spiritual home. With the intention in mind of showing the best American sherry seasoned oak cask Macallan has to offer. The Lalique crystal decanter was inspired by the Easter Elchies House on the Macallan Estate. The frosted, textured sides represent the sandstone walls of the manor house, which was built in 1700 under the careful eye of Captain John Grant, whose initials are featured on the decanter.
