Description from the seller
The Macallan EDITION N° 5 Highland Single Malt 48,5% Vol. 0,7l
The Art of Amber: Where Craftsmanship Meets Color.
Since its founding in 1824, The Macallan has stood as an undisputed icon in the world of fine spirits. Nestled in the heart of Scotland’s picturesque Speyside, the name is synonymous with an uncompromising symbiosis of time, nature, and masterful craftsmanship.
It is an obsessive dedication to the perfect marriage of distillate and wood that elevates every single drop into a work of art. Under the watchful eyes of the Master of Wood and the Whisky Mastery Team, every phase of creation—from selecting the finest barley to maturation in handpicked oak casks—is celebrated with the precision of a haute couture atelier.
With the exclusive Edition No. 5, released in late 2019, the legendary distillery created a visionary monument for both the eye and the palate. Born from a spectacular collaboration with the world-renowned Pantone Color Institute, this limited edition pays tribute to the pure, untamed aesthetics of nature. Because The Macallan completely rejects artificial colorings, this single malt captures the raw light of Scotland. For this specific expression, the Master Distiller hand-selected casks made exclusively from American oak. The result is a sensory symphony that celebrates the uniqueness and flawless purity of natural color nuances.
The Sensory Portrait:
Appearance: A deep, rich gold that plays in the glass with the opulence of liquid amber.
The Bouquet (Nose):
An elegant entree of creamy toffee and warm vanilla, softly underlaid by noble oak aromas. It unfolds into a surprisingly fresh interplay of delicate basil, juicy pears, a hint of nutmeg, and the subtle warmth of ginger.
The Palate (Taste):
On the palate, the whisky reveals a vibrant, fresh character, carried by a noble, fruity sweetness. Nuances of melting caramel and ripe pears merge harmoniously with finest oak, rounded off by an exquisite spice of nutmeg and ginger.
The Finish:
An aristocratically long-lasting finale that lingers on the palate with a gentle, caressing sweetness.
