Lifted and aromatic — fresh apple, pear, vanilla, runny honey, then green oak, hazelnut and a faint mineral, riverstone freshness.
Honeyed and silky — apple compote, dried fig, brown sugar, milk chocolate and toasted almond.
Very long, warming, with honey, dried fruit, oak and a clean mineral note.
Released in 2020, Edition No. 6 closed the Edition Series in fitting fashion — paying tribute to the River Spey.
Master Whisky Maker Sarah Burgess assembled No. 6 from a marriage of European and American oak sherry-seasoned casks.
This is arguably the most beautifully balanced of all six Editions. The palate carries Macallan's classic sherry weight but with a lightness, a flow.
A magnificent send-off to the Edition Series.
