The Macallan Harmony Amber Meadow collection is the third limited edition in an innovative series released each year. Amber Meadow was created in collaboration with Stella and Mary McCartney to celebrate the lush, fertile lands of Scotland.
The Whisky Mastery team also drew inspiration from Scotland's natural meadows to create a single malt aged in sherry and bourbon oak casks, strongly reminiscent of warm meadows and ripe barley fields with a rich lemon-scented finish.
Nose: Herbaceous, sweet and fragrant. Subtle notes of smoke, lemon, linseed oil and candied walnuts follow. A little water and the perfume intensifies, releasing heather honey, a touch of creosote and a tiny trace of tent cloth.
Mouth: Beautiful sparkling texture with real effervescence on the tongue. Initially intensely sweet, it evolves towards anise, caramel, cookies, peppermint, menthol, tar and coffee.
Finish: On soot and tar with a taste of cough drops, bitter oranges and fine tannins.
Nose: Peaty, salty notes emerge, followed by hints of ripe fruit and vanilla. Feel: On the palate, this whisky reveals itself to be powerful with aromas of smoke and dried fruit, accompanied by a touch of honey and pepper. Finish: The finish is long and warm, leaving lingering notes of peat, salt and dark chocolate on the palate.
Nose: Glenmorangie Nectar 16 Year Old reveals subtle aromas of honey, citrus and vanilla, with a delicate touch of dried fruit. Feel: On the palate, this single malt reveals indulgent flavors of toffee, roasted hazelnuts and candied fruit, with a creamy, silky texture. Finish: The finish of Glenmorangie Nectar 16 Year Old is long and smooth, letting notes of honey, chocolate and spice mingle harmoniously on the palate.
