Murray McDavid 9 year old 1997 vintage (distilled at Macallan), 46%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2008 ● Reviewer: John Hansell ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
An interesting application of Macallan, aged originally in a bourbon cask and then in Ridge Zinfandel barrels. Quite sweet and full-flavored, with ripe, jammy fruit, beach plum, subtle (yet deep) toffee, and grape skin, all laced with honey. Dynamic, fun, and carefree.
