The latest release in the "not-very-good" Macallan Quest Collection for travel retail, is this "Aurora", that gets its name from the sunrise seen everyday in the new Macallan distillery. Bottled at 40%abv, tawny color. On the nose, lots of orange aromas. There is this orange/tangerine cheap hard candy note that is very appealing. Sawdust and crush cola. After a first sip, the aroma change into sweet popcorn, butterscotch and vanilla aromatic candles. On the palate, it is super gentle. Again this tangerine candy note, the one you find in any kids piñata parties from the 1990s. Mild spices and peach syrup. Aftertaste is spicy and fruity. Oranges, crazy dips, aniseed, clove, spearmint and sawdust. Overall, this one doesn't feel like your standard Macallan, and it actually doesn't have any of the toffee/chocolate/nutty flavors or aromas that you are accustomed of. Having said that, this can be an everyday whisky that is very easy to drink with tons of citric profiles. A good dram, mi score for it is 87 over 100.
