Taste note

  • Colour:

    Amber

  • Nose:

    Sweet butterscotch toffee, with almond, ginger spice and cinnamon. Hints of dried fruit, citrus and green banana.

  • Palate:

    Sweet orange and lemon citrus with soft oak spices, fresh fruit and ginger.

  • Finish:

    Medium sweet, dry with a lingering oak, citrus fruit and ginger finish

  • Conclusion:

    The fist of the Concept Edition. Comes in this great packaging and presentation. It's an oily and medium full bodied single malt whisky. Its gives you what you expect from Macallan. Rich flavors and aromas. The price is also what you expect from Macallan. I think the price is a bit too high for what you get.
