macallan 12 year old triple cask

Macallan 12 year old Triple Cask is a uniquely-aged whisky that showcases the best of the spirit. The Macallan is famous for its sherry barrels, which are some of the most sought after casks in the industry. This particular whisky was created by blending together three different cask types: American Oak, Spanish Oak, and European Oak Sherry Butts (each type serving as a component of this Scotch’s flavor profile). As with all single malts from Scotland, each bottle comes with its own unique backstory and flavor profile (which may vary slightly depending on who bottled it).

A long and lingering finish is a sign of a well-made Scotch. It should give you time to savor the flavors in your mouth and let them evolve as the whisky burns its way down your throat. The palate is where this whisky really shines, offering a complex array of flavors that start out fruity but then quickly develop into something more dry, with hints of orange zest and cinnamon spice. The finish is zesty and floral, with notes of buttery toffee coming through on the tail end.

This really is one fine dram!

Finish: zesty and floral.

The finish is the final taste you experience after swallowing. It’s what happens when your tongue, throat, and mouth are completely clear of alcohol and there are no more oils left in your mouth from the whisky itself. A good finish should be zesty and floral—just like Macallan 12 Year Old Triple Cask.

The length of a finish depends on several factors: how oily or dry the whisky was; how much time it took to drink; whether or not you were drinking with food; if you have allergies that affect your sense of taste or smell (e.g., hay fever). If you’re not sure if your finish has ended, try asking someone else who can tell if they still have a lingering taste in their mouths by offering them some water (without mentioning anything about tasting it).
