The Macallan Single Highland Malt Whisky (Old Bottling) (75cl) 12 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and mahogany edges, a warm, sherried glow of rich, honeyed depth.

Nose

Opulent, sherried aroma of dark fruits—raisins, figs, and currants—woven with orange zest and toffee. Hints of vanilla, warming spice (cinnamon, clove), and toasted oak add depth, while a whisper of cacao and leather lingers, giving a velvety, refined perfume.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied, this Macallan unfurls a lush sherry sweetness with dark fruit—raisin, fig and date—alongside orange zest, toffee and cocoa. Cinnamon and clove spice hush the finish, supported by toasted oak and a gentle nuttiness, delivering a long, refined, warming aftertaste.

Finish

Long, elegant finish with rich sherry sweetness and dried fruit, layered with dark chocolate and orange zest. Warm spice and refined oak ebb slowly, leaving a velvet, lingering glow that speaks of Macallan's aged finesse.
