Nose
Malt. Vanilla. Palate
Nice syrupy, malty middle. Creamy. Sweetshop flavours. Sufficiently soothing to calm the palate before the abrupt termination. Finish
Spicy. Hot. Late smokiness, and astringency. Comment
With a colour close to that of today’s product and a bright clarity, this visually recalled some of the yet-older Macallans that have inspired replica editions.
Martine Nouet
Nose
Fruity, intense. Pear drops, lemon curd. Orangey notes, halfway between flowers and fruit. Quince jam. Palate
Smooth. Citrus fruits. Orange sherbet, candied orange peel. Nougat. Wood easily dominates. Finish
Quite dry, but fresh with a delicate mintiness. Comment
A rich, smooth expression of The Macallan. Relatively light in colour. Seems stronger than it really is.
