Macallan Cask Strength

Well, I think it's possible the bar watered this stuff down because there was NO burn at all without water. I certainly didn't need to pour any in my glass.

Nose: Sea salt caramel, vanilla bean, figs, cream sherry, spices.

Palette: A sugar bomb that will explode in your mouth (unless you spit it out, which I would certainly not advise). More caramel, vanilla creaminess, followed by seductively faint hints of smoke that wrap around the sugary confection like a muslin cocoon.

Finish: No more smoke, but a hint of pepper accompanies a creamy mouthfeel that transmits yet more sugar, vanilla, beignet, and caramel.

Length of finish: almost a full minute for me with the intense notes lasting half that time.

Do I even need to suggest that this is an after dinner/desert scotch? My suggestion: skip desert and drink the scotch instead, fat boy.
