This one i believe is intended for the travel Retail Market. Bottled at 42.8%abv, with a beautiful Russetmusscat color. (Or just red if you like, lol) On the nose main notes i found were: Cherry Cola, Tobacco leaf, almonds and grapes. On the palate it was oaky hot, a little citrus and a little bitter too, with pepper, liquorice , caramelized apples and spent fireworks (like ashes) notes. The aftertaste is hot but in a good, bearable way. Medium finish, medium body as well. Overall this Macallan has a 79 out of a 100 for me, but it is a tricky score because it felt like more, but my rating gave me this: 19 on the nose, 21 on the palate, 19 finish and 20 in balance. Cheers.
