Description
The Macallan 1824 Series has been created to showcase the beautiful range of natural colour found in their whiskies - each expression becoming increasingly darker and more complex.
Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: European oak piques the nose before reluctantly admitting rich, dried fruits and an edgy trickle of treacle. A hesitant sweetness enters, then oak reasserts itself, burnished and mature.The WSD: Spicy chocolate fruit and nut. That's it in a nut shell. There's also notes of sweet brittle toffee and then a bowl of assorted nuts comes through. |
Taste |
Distillery: A rush of ginger, nutmeg and resin herald orange, sultana and raisin with their restrained but persuasive sweetness. Clove is here and gone, leaving oak the undisputed maestro.The WSD: Ultra sweet on the palate. Dried fruit soaked in sugar syrup. Then dries a little and hazelnuts come through. |
Finish |
Distillery: Long, lingering and reflective. |
