Any true appreciator of divinely crafted whiskey knows that when you are offered the chance to experience anything from the Macallan Distillery, you take it. Their ability to imbue both perfect age and twistingly tempestuous flavor profiles is something legends are made of – or at least taste of! The Macallan Edition No. 5 single malt scotch is a contender for just such a title, full of classic Macallan excellence and sublime ripples of rich taste, it will leave you gasping for one more sip as soon as you’ve swallowed the first one. Like walking into your granny’s vintage kitchen, the aroma of toffee baked apple pie and sugar poached pear greet your nose from the first pour. Additional hints of savory sage and bright citrus soon follow. The palate is treated to delicate bites of sweet nuts, macadamia and walnut, along with bites of summer harvested orchard fruit soaked in honey and spicy black pepper cedar planks. The Macallan Edition No. 5 single malt finishes with a splash of heat over layers of citrus peel and lemon, like pouring a quaff of sunlight captured just as the starry globe dips below the horizon.
