Detailed Description and Tasting Notes
This premium blended malt (meaning it contains only single malt whiskies, no grain whiskies, primarily from The Macallan and Highland Park distilleries) offers a mature and deep flavor profile.
Appearance: The whisky has a deep, rich amber or dark golden color.
Aroma: The nose is rich and inviting with notes of fudge, dark caramel, raisins, and cocoa. Further aromas include candied fruits, buttery shortbread, oak spice, and hints of citrus peel and star anise. Some reviewers note a slight hint of the characteristic Highland Park peatiness.
Palate: On the palate, it is full-bodied, rich, and smooth, with a distinct toffee-like and honeyed sweetness. Flavors expand to include cherry-vanilla ice cream, baked apples, green grapes, plums, and spice notes of nutmeg and cloves. It has a thick, mouth-coating texture.
Finish: The finish is described as long, rich, and smooth, with a pleasant dryness that highlights notes of rum raisins, baked apples, candied lemon peel, and a whisper of campfire smoke and tobacco.
