Originally released for the Taiwanese market, this is Macallan Aera, a no age statement single malt matured in predominantly in sherry-seasoned oak casks. After its maturation, it was bottled up at 40% ABV in this rather striking black bottle.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Nose: Rounded and well balanced with vanilla notes, candied dried fruits, orange peel and sweet citrus.
Palate: Hint of chocolate, dried fruit richness, smooth honey with a sweet citrus burst.
Finish: Medium to long, with lingering vanilla and a gentle warmth.
