This whisky ages in Europen oak and American oak sherry barrel.

As of January 2019, due to an increase of a premium price, this whisky is on sale at 40,000 yen.

I suppose this Macallan is more rich than the present [Macallan]

I am surprised It smells very sweet.
The body tastes a bit of peat flavour and strong sherry flavour for a long time.

Then, it tastes very smooth, though the alcohol content is high.

Personal episode

When I went to a bar to Fukuoka in Japan, I found [Macalla Edition No.1].
Though I order it, it was an empty bottle. 🙁

Then, the barman recommended [Macallan Edition No.2] to me.:)
As I only drink Macallan 12year, 18year and ruby, I was surprised to drink it.

I want to drink Macallan old bottle and the other Macallan Edtion series. 🙂
