Macallan Edition No. 1
The Macallan Edition No. 1, the debut expression in the Edition Series, is a bold single malt drawn from eight of the finest European and American oak cask styles and sizes, sherry-seasoned and aged to perfection before being combined to create this rich and multidimensional whisky.
The character of each cask style lives within the whisky, creating a taste journey that begins with soft oak notes and takes one’s palate to deeper, richer flavors. When married, these casks bring together a distinctive flavor profile that highlights The Macallan’s complexity and diversity.
Bottled at a higher strength of 48% ABV for a fuller, richer flavor.
Color: Honey
Nose: Orange, apple and dried fruit notes highlight a vibrant and rich aroma. Vanilla, toffee and chocolate underlay oak overtones
Palate: Meandering, warming, wood spices; takes time to open up and reveal nutmeg, cinnamon, hints of dried ginger and toffee. The fruit appears later - fresh and balanced with fresh oak
Finish: Medium to long and lingering
