Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.
One of the first bottlings in this Maverick Drinks range to carry an age statement, this 25-year-old Macallan is a whopper of a whisky!
The nose has notes of freshly-baked berry cobbler, fig cookies, raisins, and touches of ginger, vanilla, and orange peel in the classic Macallan house style. The taste is dry, astringent, and mouth-puckering at first, then turns spicy and warming with white pepper and clove notes balanced by honey, molasses, fresh blackberries and blueberries, and a touch of marmalade. The finish is dry and subtly fruity with orange peel, berries, marmalade, and lingering spices. Outstanding! (April, 2016)
