The Macallan Douglas Laing's Old & Rare Platinum Selection Single Cask Whisky 21 Year Old · 1990 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany hues and copper highlights, a warm, luxurious glow.

Nose

Opulent sherried aroma with dark raisins and figs mingling with orange zest, toffee and cocoa. Rich spice - cinnamon and clove - drifts over polished oak, with a whisper of leather and burnt sugar, all wrapped in velvety red-fruited depths.

Palate

Opulent, full-bodied palate with fig and raisin from the ex-sherry cask, bright orange zest, and dark chocolate. Spices—cinnamon, clove, nutmeg—intertwine with polished oak and burnt sugar. Velvety and persistent, the warmth lingers into a long, refined finish.

Finish

From a single ex-sherry cask, the finish unfolds as a long, luxurious echo of the dram’s dark fruit core. Dried figs and raisins mingle with cocoa, orange zest and warm spice, while oak and a whisper of leather add depth. The 52% ABV lends a velvety, lingering warmth that slowly fades into polished sweetness and subtle nuttiness, leaving an elegant, lasting impression.
