The Macallan 18 Year Old 1996 Sherry Oak
Another year, another greatly anticipated 18 year old Macallan single malt matured in Sherry casks from Jerez, Spain. This is the 1996 vintage and it's just as gorgeous as previous bottlings.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Soft, plump raisins, ginger snaps dusted with cinnamon and vanilla creaminess. Oak in the background.
Palate
Stewed apples, again dusted with cinnamon. The oak from the nose develops. Clove and hints of orange peel.
Finish
Lasting notes of toffee, raisin and that final hint of oak.
Overall
A top-notch dram, rich and satisfying.
