Macallan 1824 Collection Select Oak
Country: Scotland
Region: Speyside
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 40%
Score: 92 Points
This travel retail release is made up of malts aged in 3 different cask types, and leans heavily to first-fill sherry casks. The nose is butterscotch candies, vanilla, and raisins, and the butterscotch notes carry over to the taste. There’s also a spicy touch of marsala powder and a slight touch of citrus. The finish is slightly aromatic and dry with notes of brown sugar and caramel candy.
