Why We Love This
This whisky is a unique selection of oak cask styles are combined to yield a new limited edition expression each year. Like preceding releases, The Macallan Edition No. 3 Single Malt Scotch Whisky is an exploration into Macallan's approach to whisky making, exposing the detail of its creation, and offering true transparency.
This whisky is a barley gold colour. The nose has a reminiscent of a fine fragrance with delicate florals, fresh cut oak, and vanilla ice cream. Orange oil provides subtle grandeur while ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg flit in and out. Vanilla imparts sweetness with citrus fruits at the fore before allowing chocolate to come through. The palate is of rich fruit cake, sweet fruit, and vanilla with hints of apricot, crisp green apple, and pear. Cinnamon and ginger are balanced with a light resinous oak finale. The finish is fruit, long, and sweet.
