The Macallan 1984 Release Sherry Oak Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 18 Year Old · 1966 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany and copper-toned undertones, a rich, wine-dark glow.

Nose

Opulent sherry influence bursts from the nose: dark prune, fig and raisin mingle with orange zest and toffee. Cocoa, almond and caramel weave through toasted oak, while cinnamon, clove and nutmeg spice the air. Subtle tobacco and leather add gravitas, finishing with a velvety, resinous sweetness.

Palate

Opulent palate with velvety concentration: dried figs, raisins and dates mingle with dark chocolate, toffee and orange zest. Rich sherry sweetness coats spiced oak—cinnamon and clove—along with a nutty almond nuance. Full-bodied and refined, it glides to a long, warming finish of caramelized fruit and polished oak.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish with a dense sherry sweetness that lingers beside dried fig, plum and prune. Cocoa and dark chocolate unfurl, guarded by toasted oak and spice; a velvet, resinous warmth persists, leaving a refined, leather-tinged tail that sighs away slowly.
