The Macallan Silver Seal Single Barrel Whisky 13 Year Old · 1990 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery sheen and mahogany undertones, a sun-warmed, luxurious glow that hints at sherry-rich depth.

Nose

Opulent sherry-soaked perfume of dried figs, plum, and dark cherries, lifted by orange zest and toffee. Rich cocoa nibs and baking spices: cinnamon, clove, nutmeg settle on velvety oak, with a faint hint of leather and tobacco. A luxurious, aged warmth that promises depth and elegance in the sip.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied on the palate, this Macallan single-barrel pours a wave of rich sherry, bathed in polished oak. Dried dark fruit—raisins, fig, orange zest—kissed by cocoa, toffee, and baking spices. Velvet texture supports a long, warming finish, with cocoa, leather, and a touch of nutmeg lingering.

Finish

Long, velvety finish, sherry-led sweetness entwined with toasted oak. Dried fig and cocoa give way to warm spice, with subtle orange zest drifting through the fade and a final, refined nutty note lingering on the palate.
