My second review from the "Masters of Magic" collection comes from a distillery that i have never tasted before, and one that has a little bit of a good name in some places. I am talking about Macduff, a rather "new" distillery that was founded in 1960. It is located in the scottish highlands, next to the sea. This second expression from the Masters of Magic, shows a beautiful and crazy label of Blackstone the great, a very famous magician, famous for his show about spirits materializing. This is a 11yo Macduff, bottled at 46%abv On the nose, it starts with hazelnut, waffer, and chocolate notes. Sawdust, camphor, almonds. Buttery. After a couple of sips, it gave me an aroma note of an spicy marmalade. On the palate, it is incredibly creamy. Chocolate notes, red chilli. It feels like a creamy thick cheese. Aftertaste is great. Chocolate, red chilli, tabasco sauce. It is deliciously spicy. Lulo fruit acid finish. Overall, this one was quite the ride. Lots of unexpected flavors and aromas happened here. Many of those notes were very bold. The sweetness mixes with the spiciness in a lovely, interesting way. I don't know if all other Macduff whiskies are like this, but now this distillery has my attention. I will definitively look for more expressions from them. My score for this truly enjoyable and fun single malt, is 91 over 100.
