Macallan Fine Oak 21 year

Posted by 80proof On May - 5 - 2009

macallan211The Macallan Fine Oak Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whiskey is triple cask matured in a unique, complex combination of exceptional oak casks:
1. European oak casks seasoned with sherry impart a rich character with hints of dried fruits, spice and chocolate orange.
2. American oak casks seasoned with sherry deliver delicate hints of citrus lemon, coconut and toffee sweetness.
3. American oak casks seasoned with bourbon deliver floral aromas and sweet notes of vanilla and fresh fruits.

This triple cask combination delivers an extraordinarily smooth, delicate yet complex Single Malt matured at The Macallan distillery for a minimum of 21 years.

Colour: Light Amber.

Nose: Intense rich aroma, with hints of vanilla and passion fruit.

Palate: Soft, rich and spicy with hints of oranges and peat. <,br/>
