The Macallan Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (1990's Bottling) 10 Year Old

Colour

Deep burnished amber with coppery-bronze hues and a mahogany rim.

Nose

Opulent sherry-drenched nose, rich with dark fruit compote—raisin, fig and date—lifted by orange zest and toffee. Cinnamon, clove and nutmeg dance with cocoa and espresso notes, while polished oak, cedar and a whisper of leather anchor the bouquet in old-world Macallan elegance.

Palate

Silky, medium-full on the palate, with lush sherry sweetness underpinning ripe raisin, fig and orange zest. Rich toffee and dark chocolate mingle with warming spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—while oak and a touch of coffee add depth. The finish is long and refined, gently nutty with lingering citrus and hints of almond.

Finish

Long, velvety finish with dried fruit, orange zest and cocoa, underscored by toasted oak. Cinnamon and nutmeg persist as the sherry influence lingers, leaving a warm, plush fade of spice, almond and leather.
