Macallan 12 YO 110 Proof, 55.0%
The Macallan 12 YO 110 Proof is available to buy in Norway this week at NOK 1500 (21227501).
Nose: A very classic sherry nose. Cool, mellow notes of dried fruits, with raisins and dates leading the way. All very well behaved and gentlemanly. With time, soft leather, pencil shavings and unsalted peanuts emerge.
Taste: Full bodied. Rich and wonderfully fruity, with dried fruits taking centre stage. Raisins dominate once again, accompanied by dates, figs and ripe plums. Nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger bring a lovely warming spiciness.
Finish: Long finish. Dark and sweet, with the rich dried fruits lingering beautifully. Towards the end, chocolate joins the mix.
Comment: Classic sherry matured whisky.
