Taster

Nose: Toffee notes with some polished oak. A real depth here revealing ginger,\rspice and a little nutmeg.

Palate: That spice note explodes in the mouth,drying slightly on oak.

Finish: Long and lingering with a suggestion of smoke.

Comment: Yet again Macallan on form. Great interplay with oak and spice.

Score: 8.2
