Macallan is one the worlds most well known whiskies in the world with bottles of rare Macallan fetching thousands.
I often wonder how much you're paying for a brand name with whisky the big names spend a fortune on advertising and this reflects on the price we as punters have to pay.
This is regarded as one of finest malts in teh world and it certainly has a wonderful smooth finish, maybe a little too smooth for me though.
On the nose i got a whiff of freshly cut grass with sweet sherry and maybe almonds.
This is as smooth as silk to drink and perhaps wasted on me as I was three sheets to the wind already, sweet with a definate hint of chocolate and orange.
You know if you like whisky with a punch this is not for you, if you like smothing smooth then it's all good.
Find where to buy Macallan whisky
Maybe try it again when you are ready to taste?
