The Macallan
Scotland
Single Malt
Macallan's 1824 range has done away with age-statements and instead focuses on the colour of the whisky. The concept being that the older the whisky is the darker it will be... Regardless of how true this really is, it's certainly a great whisky packed with assertive vanilla and citrus flavours.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
This burnished gold spirit presents a lemon citrus nose, the orange peel and an interlacing sweetness that softens but doesn't eliminate the zest. A quiet note of vanilla is followed by dark chocolate - more assertive, yet not overly so - with a lingering floral and light oak notes.
Citrus and boiled sweets rule the palate, along with hints of ginger and cinnamon, while soft oak tones reveal toasted apples.
The finish is medium sweet, malty and slightly dry.
I received one as a gift, it's ok. I will not buy it for sure, now that i drink it, rather spend my money with other single malts. But with a good cigar, the mix is very good and complex.
Disappointing! Bland! Lucky Bought it at Costco so I didn't pay through the nose (no pun intended) at Costco price it's okay,but just okay. saw it at another online liquor store for $99.00!
So, reading all the comments ... um yeah . You have to make up your own mind on this one. My mind says that is you're willing to pour a £35 bottle down the drain cause you don't like the taste, stick to milk buddie , or at least rather give someone else the bottle to enjoy it. This brew inst that bad that you need to pour it away, yes its not amazing like the other Macallan's but it is still very enjoyable. It has a great taste and smell. The honey is there for sure, maybe even a tad too much imo! But it grows on you and you will have another after the first, second , third and fourth ...fifth Would I buy it again ? No , not at that price. Only Because you can get much better single malts for the same price range that will do so much more for your palette. Drop the price of the GOLD to by £10 and ill buy 2 bottles without a doubt. (resellers) Don't hike the price just cause its Macallans, put it in its correct price range and you'll sell more bottles. I promise !
Purchased a bottle before reading any reviews. Macallan is usually very good. After reading the reviews with mixed responses I was apprehensive about opening the bottle and I was thinking about returning it unopened for a refund. I'M GLAD I DID'NT, This whiskey is wonderful. Very smooth finish and is fragrant to the nose. Been drinking scotch whiskey for 41 years and have tasted everything imaginable. I will keep this one and add it to my collection.
Like angels dancing on your tongue.
