Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden amber with deep honey tones, edged in warm copper and a whisper of mahogany, a sunlit, refined glow.
Nose
Prunes with a touch of ginger and a hint of sherry open to perfumed notes of apple blossom and freshly baked hot cross buns studded with apple pieces and orange peel. Caramac bars add a creamy sweetness, while pear skin and vanilla linger over warm, sweet pastry.
Palate
Chopped red apple and sweet sultanas compete with maltiness and oak beneath the surface.
Finish
A long, signature Macallan finish: crisp walnut and chewy oak underpin a delicate sweetness of raisin shortbread, leaving a warm, resinous whisper of bakery spice that lingers on the palate.
