Macallan Gold 1824 Series with 0.7L and 40% Color: Gold Aroma: One of the more recent bottlings within the series without artificial colors is the Gold Whisky, accompanied by Amber Whisky. It smells of citrus fruit and apple. The savory, fresh fruitiness is accompanied by orange peel and sweetness. Vanilla is replaced by dark chocolate. Slowly, the Scotch is getting more and more character and maturity. It becomes a little stronger without losing its charm. Floral tones and oak wood pave the way for the taste. Taste: The Speyside Whisky convinces with confectionery and citrus fruits. Cinnamon and ginger give it something spicy. Baked apple and toasted oak are also noticeable. The impression on the palate is soft and pleasant.
