More information Macallan Gold 1824 (Highland) Whisky
Macallan Gold was released in late 2012 as part of a series of colour-themed bottlings introduced to replace the distillery's age-statement expressions. Gold has been produced from 9-15yo first fill and refill sherry casks and is designed to sit between the now-defunct 10yo Sherry Oak and 10yo Fine Oak bottlings.

Nose: Lemon citrus, then orange peel and an interlacing sweetness that softens but doesn't eliminate the zest. A quiet note of vanilla is followed by dark chocolate with lingering floral and light oak notes.
Palate: Citrus and boiled sweets rule the palate, along with hints of ginger and cinnamon, while soft oak tones reveal toasted apples.
Finish: Medium sweet, malty and slightly dry. | | Package | Box | | Product Dimensions | 31 x 8 x 8 cm | | Volumetric Weight | 1.60 | | Storage Instructions | Cool and dry conditions | | Manufacturer | The Macallan Distillers LTD | | Country Produced in | Scotland | | Since | Tuesday 16 July, 2013 | |
