This Macallan has a wonderful aroma full of dried fruit, cola, and chocolate. I even get a hint of buttered popcorn. Which may be strange, but somehow blends well with the other rich smells.
Palate is sweet with complex spices that change while on your tongue. A couple drops of water bring out more spices.
The spices fade as you swallow leaving a sweet desert flavor in your mouth which may be too sweet for some, but I don’t think it’s overwhelming or bad.
This whisky certainly taste more mature than other 12 year old scotches, perhaps due to the quality of Macallan’s casks. A very enjoyable scotch which can be recommended to new or experienced scotch drinkers.
