Taste note

  • Colour:

    Golden amber

  • Nose:

    A delicate peat starts, leading to a soft, aged oak smoke. A body of refreshing citrus lemons and green apples, with a background of vanilla pods and raisins, with the smallest hint of ginger.

  • Palate:

    Delicate peat smoke combines with a soft vanilla, and a surprising sweet oak smoke. A gentle wood spice combines with a delicate peat smoke, which gradually fades to leave a viscous mouth coating of citrus fruits and subtle green apples.

  • Finish:

    Medium and fruity, with a sweet oaky mouth feel.

  • Conclusion:

    One of the oldest impression of The Macallan ever made. This 72 years old Macallan is something ironic and shows off the skills and vision of The Macallan. Can't wait what The Macallan come up with next. This is a real piece of art and history in a bottle.
