It was then aged for 12 years in refill hogshead number 5745 before bottling by Douglas Laing in the Winter of 2010.
This whisky is the most floral Macallan that I have had. Not a single trace of that incredible sherry character Macallan whiskies usually have.
This dram has a white wine-like color.
Nose (85): more than average. honey, some floral, spices, vanilla, citrus. Very floral Macallan. One of the most floral I have ever had.
Palate (84): smooth, powerful. floral, wood, spices, vanilla, honey, smoke. Really floral. At times it remind me of Glenglassaugh
Finish (83): longer than average. floral, citrus, vanilla.
So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Macallan 12 Year Old 1997 Cask 5745 - Provenance (Douglas La with 84 points over 100.![Write a comment](/images/1px.gif)
