Description
Aroma
The initial nose might be slightly reserved, offering subtle hints of dried fruits like raisins and figs, mingled with sweet and salty notes of salted caramel and a touch of woodiness like sawdust. A surprising burst of ginger adds a spicy complexity to the aroma.
Palate
Taking a sip reveals the smooth and luxurious texture that The Macallan is known for. The initial sweetness unfolds with flavors of dried fruits, transitioning to richer notes of ripe plums. Hints of milk chocolate add a touch of creaminess, balanced by a subtle bitterness of dark chocolate and a whisper of black pepper that lingers on the tongue. As the whisky opens up, you might also detect a hint of new leather, adding a touch of sophistication to the overall profile.
Finish
The finish is long and warming, leaving a pleasant aftertaste of dried fruit, spice, and a touch of chocolate. The subtle oak influence from the American oak casks adds a hint of vanilla and baking spice, creating a truly well-rounded and satisfying experience.
