The label says: ‘Youngest whisky distilled in 1986’ so it wasn’t a vintage anymore. Colour: amber. Nose: fresh and sweet. Quite some sherry but not the usual heavy oloroso at first nosing. Some burnt cake, liquorice, caramel, Grand Marnier. Hints of smoke. The sherry grows much stronger after a few minutes, though, and the whole gets greater and greater. It smells more and more like the great old 18 yo Macallans distilled in the 70’s. Mouth: wow, classy stuff! Bold sherry, dried orange, vanilla fudge, milk chocolate. Less complex than the nose suggested, and a bit rough around the edges, but very satisfying. The finish is long, a little winey and oaky. A very good and powerful Macallan. 88 points - whiskyfun.com
