Distillery Notes "There are moments when we may pause in our busy lives, close our eyes and think of those who came before; those whose labors and laughter, triumphs and tears, have shaped the world we know today. We may see them through an image, or through the written pages of history, or in the shared memories of our elders. Very occasionally they can speak to us more directly, through a medium we can consume, allowing us to drink the fruits of their endeavors. Such opportunities are rare, very rare. The collection of vintage single malt whiskies in The Macallan Fine & Rare Collection provides one of those opportunities. Launched early this century, The Macallan Fine & Rare Collection has grown to become the largest assembly of vintage-dated, single malt whiskies in the world. These fifty-seven bottlings are products of nature’s gentle process, undisturbed for decades in sherry seasoned oak casks."
This single cask, cask strength 30-year-old whiskey was bottled in 2021. It encompasses beautiful aromatics of sweet honey and vanilla followed by peach and raspberry tart, antique oak, orange oil and caramelized apple. The palate boasts of orange and almond cake, vanilla and raisin, leather and forest fruits, nutmeg, liquorice and iced cinnamon buns. The finish is long, interesting and complex with a fresh, sweet twist and gentle spice. Only 467 bottles made.
