3.5 stars - Very good; two bottles If Macallan is a string quartet, this is a rock band playing their greatest hits. Dirty, grungy, aggressive and a great time. Even better if you have an opening act to warm up your palate. First bottle was a 5 star masterpiece; second was a solid 3 star. Freshman album was better than their sophomore effort. Expect some batch variation. Oxidation really opens this one up and reveals new flavors. Drink this over 12 months for the full experience.
