The Macallan M Black

Description There remain at The Macallan Estate rare, black-ended casks holding peated Macallan. The smoke-infused spirit matured in these sherry seasoned oak casks has gathered distinction and depth over decades.Flavour notes of warming wood spices open to dark chocolate and ginger, with a rare, lingering, and characterful peat trace. An affectionate history of a whisky, it expressively chronicles bygone crafts of the generations that made it. Those lucky to meet it will never forget their rendezvous. Subtly smoky and brooding it may be, but the whisky possesses the spark and breeding of a true Macallan. In its honour, its new home is hand crafted from black Lalique crystal. COLOUR Golden sunrise NOSE Dark chocolate and cherry, moving into vanilla and peat. Delicate wood spices, hints of dried fruit and treacle. PALATE Warming wood spices and peat with black forest fruits opening into vanilla, dark chocolate, ginger and fig medley. Ginger continues throughout as the combination of orange oil and peat gently rises and falls. FINISH Long lingering peat smoke with a raisin sweetness.
