This is a rich single malt with an incredibly approachable profile. A marriage of whiskies aged in sherry-seasoned American and European oak barrels, it delivers toasted nuts, dried fruits, and leather on the nose, followed by vanilla, pepper, and candied ginger on the palate. The honeyed sweetness that runs throughout will satisfy all whisk(e)y drinkers, not just Scotch aficionados.
背景:
The Macallan distillery is a single malt Scotch whisky distillery in Craigellachie, Moray, Scotland. The Macallan Distillers Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Edrington Group, which purchased the brand from Highland Distillers in 1999. Originally, The Macallan was matured only in oak sherry casks brought to the distillery from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. Beginning in 2004, The Macallan introduced a new main product, the Fine Oak series, with the whisky mellowed in bourbon oak casks as well as sherry ones.
