Macallan 21 Year Old Fine Oak Description

Matured in a combination of both ex-sherry and ex-bourbon casks, the Fine Oak series showcases a lighter style of Macallan than the Sherry Oak, with a little more distillery character apparent. The 21 year old expression is described as “The Age of Maturity”.

The nose would suggest an older whisky – scented hand-cream, sandalwood, pears in liquor: sophisticated. The taste is sweet, lightly spicy and drying elegantly. A little water introduces an initial spicy note to the aroma and a slight acidity to the taste.

Knowledge Bar

All colour in The Macallan whiskies, bottled by the distillery, is natural. Only the interaction of the ‘new make’ spirit with the oak of the maturation casks delivers the rich and natural diversity of colour throughout the range, from light oak through to darkest mahogany. These natural colours remain ‘fixed’, as opposed to artificial colour which fades relatively quickly in bright sunlight. Great skill is required by the Whisky Maker to achieve consistency of natural colour from bottling to bottling.
