Macallan Harmoney Amber Meadow – 70 cl

Macallan Harmony Collection Amber Meadow is a remarkable expression of the Macallan distillery’s commitment to excellence and innovation. This single malt Scotch whisky is a testament to the art of blending, showcasing an intricate balance between the spirit and its oak cask maturation. The Amber Meadow, as part of the Harmony Collection, is crafted from a careful selection of European and American oak casks. The European oak imparts rich flavors with spicy undertones while the American oak contributes to its lighter, sweeter notes. This combination results in a complex yet harmonious flavor profile that sets it apart from other whiskies. On nosing, you’re greeted with an inviting bouquet of ripe orchard fruits like apples and pears intermingled with honey sweetness and subtle hints of vanilla – a nod to its American oak heritage. As you take your first sip, you’ll notice how these fruity notes evolve into deeper flavors of dried fruits and spices courtesy of the European oak influence. The finish is long-lasting with lingering notes of sweet fruitiness balanced by gentle spice. It’s this delicate equilibrium between sweet and spicy that makes Macallan Harmony Collection Amber Meadow truly unique.
