The Macallan Classic Cut (2017 Edition), 58.4%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2018 ● Reviewer: Gavin Smith ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
Released exclusively for the U.S., this is the first bottling in an annual series celebrating what Macallan terms its “…unrivalled commitment to the mastery of wood and spirit.” Matured in oloroso sherry-seasoned American and European oak casks. Confident Christmas cake aromas, plus quite assertive oak. Honey, toffee, vanilla, nutmeg, ginger, and lively oak on the palate. Gingery wood notes in the medium-length finish.
