The finish is gentle, smooth, and clean with a slight bitter element. A warming, mid-weight whisky of some complexity and character. As with the nose, citric tendencies come through best on dilution. Smooth tightly combined flavours. Smokey, sappy oak.
Scores points for robustness.
We have access to very rare and limited stocks of historic Macallan bottlings. These whiskies, while highly collectible, are also strongly recommended for drinking. Taste These early Macallans are an exceptional opportunity to experience the style of this malt distilled in the pre-war and war time era. The stocks available also span the years after the war when the kilns employed coal and peat producing a more phenolic style than that of the more recent, but equally excellent, Macallans. 25 Year Olds, in other cases carrying no official age statement but likely to be of the usual very high quality.
