The Macallan 50 Year Old - The Red Collection 2020 Release
The Macallan
Tasting Notes
The Macallan 50 Year Old whisky from the Red Collection captivates with its remarkable journey of half a century. Matured in European oak casks seasoned with sherry, it unveils an exquisite tapestry of aromas and flavors. The nose enchants with antique oak, soft leather, and delicate floral notes, intertwined with rich cocoa, black cherry, and a hint of ginger. On the palate, a warming embrace of dried fruits and wood spices unfolds, transitioning into luscious dates, dark chocolate, orange oil, and sultry sultanas. The finish is a symphony of complexity, with a slight effervescent feel and a lingering finale of raisins, dates, and velvety crème brûlée. Truly an exceptional single malt, the presentation box ingeniously crafted from the same sustainable European oak as the casks, elevates the experience to a realm of sheer indulgence.
