Smoky Macallan?! Yes indeed friends, such a thing exists! Macallan Rare Cask Black was made from a marriage of less than 100 casks, resulting in an expression that shows off a fascinating combination of rich peat smoke and Macallan's characteristic Sherried power. Peaty whisky is very much a rarity from Macallan, so this is very much an exciting bottling!
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tobacco-rich smokiness, with spicy hints of old oak and pepparkakor. Heavily Sherried notes of fig jam and buttery sultana scones give away the whisky's Speyside roots.
Damson, dates and Demerara sugar. The earthy and herbaceous peaty elements take their time to reveal themselves.
A mixture of dark chocolate, fresh ginger and a whiff of bonfire smoke.

Amazing! Old quality oak, Black Forest gateau, cigar tobacco, oily mouthfeel, had this side by side with a yamazaki 18 and Glengoyne 21, all great drams but this was the winner, bought a bottle.
All the flavours of a somehow dark taste, smoked pubs of old-towns, old taste, very interesting. Just wish i can get some more and be able to pay for it.
My first experience of this whisky, very enjoyable. All the flavours of a very rich dark fruity Christmas cake without the icing. Just wish I could afford it on regular basis.
Great flavor. a bit more bite than expected for the cost. Would be amazing at $250/bottle but $500 is over the top. Massillon is beginning to abuse the name queried from years of one of the finest proprietary scotch flavors out there.
RARE CASK. So that is a blend from less than 100 casks, each will produce 500+ bottles. Less than 50,000 bottles of NAS is not that rare at all, hardly collectable. I'm so excited I can barely press the 'exit' button.
