The Macallan
Tasting Notes
The Macallan M Black (2020 Release) is a remarkable single malt Scotch whisky that unveils the smoky side of this legendary distillery. While retaining the iconic sherry notes that Macallan is renowned for, the introduction of peat adds an extra layer of richness and depth to the spirit. The nose greets you with alluring aromas of dark chocolate, cherry, and vanilla, interwoven with hints of peat. On the palate, warming wood spices and peat seamlessly merge with flavors of black forest fruits, vanilla, dark chocolate, ginger, and fig, creating a harmonious medley of flavors. The ginger lingers throughout, as the interplay between orange oil and peat gently rises and falls. The finish is long and lingering, with a sweet raisin note accompanied by the smoky caress of peat smoke. Presented in an exquisite Lalique decanter and an equally stylish presentation case, this whisky is a true masterpiece for the senses.
