Macallan 60 Lalique Edition IV
Country: Scotland
Region: Speyside
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 53.2%
Score: 95 Points
This 2011 release is the fourth in a series of Lalique decanter expressions, and the nose is peatier than modern-day Macallans with notes of cinnamon, baked apples, oak, and a subtle fruitiness. The taste is mouth-filling, vibrant, and smoky with notes of black tea and dark-chocolate covered cherries. The finish is very long and smoky with a touch of cherries. Outstanding!
