The Macallan SMWS 24.108 Ferrari Screech Whisky 13 Year Old · 1996 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with a copper-gold glow and mahogany undertones.

Nose

Opulent sherry richness envelops the bouquet, releasing dark fruit—raisin, date, fig—woven with baked apple and orange zest, threaded with vanilla. Cocoa and toffee mingle with warm oak, while toasted almond and leather deepen the center. A hint of espresso and tobacco adds refined, high-octane intensity, promising the power and pedigree of a true Macallan single cask.

Palate

Silky, intensely sherried, with dark plum and raisin crowned by orange zest and honeyed toffee. Velvet mid-palate carries cocoa-dusted cherries, fig, and warm spice—cinnamon, clove, nutmeg—beneath polished oak. Rich and full-bodied, the elevated ABV adds poised warmth, releasing dried fruit and espresso that linger in a long, velvety finish.

Finish

An enduring, luxurious finish that clings to the palate. Dark fig and raisin weave with cocoa, orange zest and cinnamon, beneath a ribbon of toffee and rich oak. A warm, velvety glow lingers long after the swallow, inviting the next sip.
