The Macallan Select Reserve Whisky 52 Year Old · 1946 Vintage

Colour

Deep, burnished copper-amber with mahogany depth and a velvety ruby-tinted glow.

Nose

Peated malt threads a refined smoky note through luxurious sherry depth. Rich dried fruits—raisins, figs, prunes—glow with toffee and orange zest, while warm spices and vanilla weave through elegant oak. Subtle cocoa and leather nuances complete a poised, old-world aroma of depth and refinement.

Palate

Refined peat whispers through a velvet sherry backbone, with dried fig, date and cacao lining the mid-palate. Toffee, vanilla and intricate spice unfurl over polished oak, while leather and a whisper of tobacco add depth. The 52-year maturation yields a serene, long finish with a gentle, smoky echo.

Finish

Long and luxurious, the finish unfolds with restrained peat smoke, velvety oak, and dark chocolate wrapped in dried fig. Sherry warmth threads through, trading sweetness for spice as the smoke slowly drifts away in a warm, refined echo.
