The Macallan Edition No.4

Volume: 700ml / ABV: 48.4%

The fourth entry in the Edition range, this release focuses on the structure of the distillery's trademark weighty style, as well as celebrating the opening of Macallan's incredible new distillery. It is a well-balanced dram, constructed to show the best of each cask type selected to create the whisky: European and American oak refill butts and hogsheads, as well as butts, puncheons and hogsheads specifically from Vasmya, Diego Martin, Jose y Miguel Martin and Tevasa.

Tasting Note

Nose

Rich nutmeg, floral honey and orange zest are present initially, before a little red berry note and toasted oak emerge.

Finish

The finish lasts for an age and carries a smattering of wood spice.
