Macallan Classic Cut 2020 Edition, Sherry & Ex-Bourbon Cask, 2020, 55%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

88 / 100

The sultana, raisin and candied orange peel appeal to my fondness for dried-fruit richness. Ginger and fresh oak give the sweeter palate some lift, while thyme brings a graceful herbal turn to the finish. The peppery oak may compete with the fruit for some, but I like that contrast.
