Notes & Reviews

The Macallan

posted 6 Jul. 2012

The Macallan gave this whisky 80 points

Color

Tawny

Nose

Smokey (sweetening smoke), some smoke fish, in the back some fruity notes and some iodine (reduced: warm, acidity, cooked apples, very light smokey, less medicinal and sweetness from warm fruit).

Taste

Full and a hint of briny notes, grinded pepper, juicy and yet that briny touch again - a salty note (reduced: nice and mellow, slightly some pepper and some woody/spicy notes).

Finish

Long, dry/chewy, nice and warm mouthfeel.

Comments

A lovely toy from Diageo, nice expression. The extra maturation just cleans of the rough edges and smoothens it. A lovely dram!!!
