| Нос | 91 | great nose with notes of fresh fruit, tropical fruit, some of them slightly overripe (acetone). Subtle oak notes, baking spices in particular vanilla, fruit cake, idea herbaceous. Pleasant and appealing. 91 |
| Вкус | 91 | fruity and spicy, here the oak comes to the fore, spices, some barrel and coffee, hint of chocolate. Tart to bittersweet, slightly astringent. Doesn't necessarily require the addition of water, but needs some time in the glass. The taste then progressively improves, the wood notes become milder, the fruit aromas intensify somewhat and the overall impression becomes more harmonious. 90-91 |
| Финиш | 90 | Pleasantly spicy and finely dry, notes of wood/oak, spices, becoming a bit dry. Idea herbaceous and peppery. Finally a little nutty and slightly sweetish-malty finish. 89-90 |
| Нос | 94 | Vanilla, biscuit dough, pear, elderberry syrup, ripe banana, floral notes like in the greenhouse, sweet pineapple or papaya, vegetable broth (without the salt), waxy, later some oak spice and green apple. The overall smell is very intense, almost overwhelming. |
| Вкус | 93 | Bit tent in the mouth, then a bit woody, then sweet, sugary and gently fruity for a long time, maybe the papaya from the nose again, then it becomes a bit peppery and spicy and the focus goes to the most delicate wood notes, which become stronger and stronger until the finish. |
| Финиш | 94 | A little more bitterness comes to the fore. The Bounty chocolate bar with chocolate and sweetened grated coconut. Something that unfortunately I can only describe as sounding less delicious than it is: steamed Brussels sprouts, paired with a mild sweetness and slightly nutty appeal because of the slight bitterness. At the end there is delicious bourbon vanilla. The finish with vanilla doesn't stop at all. After the sip, I quickly packed a Christmas present and then realized: you can still taste this hotshot! |
| Нос | 93 | The most delicious, flawless tropical fruit cocktail - partly crystalline citrus notes, a touch of delicious oak, sweet dessert note - with more time, gets a great floral-crystalline touch of polished oak that I only know from much older malts |
| Вкус | 93 | fine citrus notes, yellow melon, fine polished wood, coconut cream dessert, freshly sawn, light green oak boards - creamy, lively and powerfully pulsating and always elegant - if you chew it for longer - there is a lot more oak, the fruity notes emerge easily Background - but also here delicious bitter substances in connection with sweet dessert and blooming mountain meadow herbs |
| Финиш | 92 | dried mango, flambéed ripe pineapple, Mediterranean spices - slightly herbal peppery - very spicy for such an elegant malt |
| Нос | 91 | The color of light golden amber. The Macallan 1998 GM lies oily in the nosing glass. At first, the alcohol with its 51.9% is quite present in the nose and cools, but after a few moments it goes away and then the Macallan can no longer keep its origin from an ex-bourbon barrel a secret. A massive load of honey and vanilla flavors makes its way up your nose, followed by pineapple, oranges, sugar candy, beeswax and a hint of toffee and marzipan. Overall a very sweet and fruity nosing. A few drops of water cause light, subtle wood notes to open up and make the fruity nose a little more complex. If you smell it very closely, you can begin to guess the aforementioned "glue note" that many bourbon are said to be. |
| Вкус | 90 | The 51.9% are very pleasant on the tongue, the alcohol is very well integrated and nothing stings. The nosing continues skillfully on the palate. At the beginning, the sweet notes of vanilla and honey dominate again. But after some chewing, the Macallan becomes spicier on the tongue. A slight inquer / pepper note exudes a slightly "sharp" counterpoint to the sweetness. With the second sip, you can now also hear slightly bitter notes, spice and sweetness deliver a passionate battle for dominance on the palate. Everything is very well balanced, no missing notes, victory on the palate just goes to the spicy protagonists. |
| Финиш | 90 | The finish is long and warm. A very pleasant feeling of well-being remains in the mouth. The flow of saliva is still in action, but it is decreasing so that the palate is slowly becoming drier. The sweet notes of vanilla and honey are literally sticking to the tip of the tongue, while further back and on the cheeks the more spicy aromas can be found, with the ginger coming to the fore again and the “glue note” recalling itself. Slowly, very slowly, the mouthfeel evaporates and the realization remains that Macallan is not only good at sherry. |
