An exquisite experience: Macallan Classic Cut 2019 Edition
Macallan Classic Cut 2019 Edition – An exquisitely balanced classic
Macallan has done it again: With Classic Cut - 2019 Edition, the distillery once again delivers an exquisite example of why they are at the pinnacle of Scotch whisky craftsmanship. As the third edition in the specially limited Classic Cut series, this whisky marks Macallan's passion for the extraordinary.
Whiskymaker Polly Logan has chosen a carefully measured alcohol strength of 52.9% – a decision that highlights the complex and sweet notes that define this single malt. With its antique gold glow and elegant balance, this is a whisky that really needs to be enjoyed slowly and thoughtfully.
The taste experience
After just 10-15 minutes of aeration, this single malt unfolds with an explosion of fine aromas and layers of flavour. You are greeted by a scent with hints of orange peel, sweet nutmeg and ginger, with a touch of sultanas and hazelnut in the background.
On the tongue, there is a pleasant sweetness, with notes of orange, ginger and mild vanilla. The gentle spice from the oak barrels balances the sweetness elegantly, and the aftertaste is long and silky.
Origin and characteristics
The Macallan Classic Cut 2019 Edition comes from the renowned Speyside region in the Highlands of Scotland. It is not smoked like many other Scotch whiskies, making it particularly accessible to both new enthusiasts and seasoned collectors.
This conventionally produced single malt whisky is a limited edition, bottled in a classic 70cl bottle, and has an alcohol content of 52.9%. The colour is best described as a beautiful antique gold – itself an indication of quality and full-bodied character.
