Winery
Macallan Distillery was founded in 1824 by Alexander Reid under the name Elchies Distillery. Located near Easter Elchies House, in Craigellachie, in the Speyside region of Scotland. It was one of the first to open after the Distillery Legalization Act of the early 1800s and in 1892, following a change of ownership, took the name Macallan-Glenlivet, later changed to just Macallan. Over the years, the distillery became famous for its aging in former sherry casks, early bottlings dedicated to Italian importers, and glorious exports in the 1970s and 1980s, coming to earn the reputation that today makes Macallan considered the king of single malt whiskies-a true status symbol in the world of spirits.
Description
The Macallan 15 Years Old Double Cask è un Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky della The Macallan Distilleries. Si tratta di un single malt decisamente bilanciato e perfettamente equilibrato.
Invecchiato in un misto di botti di rovere americano ed europeo, poi unite in botti ex-sherry Oloroso. Il profilo fruttato e agrumato del 15 anni lascia spazio a una complessità crescente, note di frutta sotto spirito e spezie sul finale.
Organoleptic characteristics:
Golden yellow in color with golden highlights. At first impact, there is a hint of caramel with candied orange and lemon, along with vanilla and oak.
On the palate, it has unmistakable notes of milk chocolate raisins and creamy toffee, balanced with orange zest and delicate spices.
Storage time:
over 20 years
