I’ll be completely honest with you and share something that many of you won’t expect 🙂 . I’ve drunk a lot of Macallan over the years. From just released NAS to 30-Year-Old Sherried Oak, I’ve tried a lot!
You might be surprised to learn then that this is the best release I can remember trying. It knocked my socks off and enough for me to place it in my top 12 whiskies – ever. That’s without thinking about how much of a dream these are going to be at auction over the next few years!
Here’s what Macallan has to say “Crafted from a harmonious combination of European and American oak casks, this rich single malt whisky pairs in perfect harmony with fine chocolates for an elevated tasting experience. A collaboration with renowned pastry chef Jordi Roca of three Michelin star restaurant El Celler de Can Roca, this release brings the worlds of chocolate and whisky to life. To create the first limited edition whisky in a new annual release series, The Macallan Whisky Maker Polly Logan embarked on a unique journey to Girona, Spain, where she immersed herself in the world of chocolate, exploring the chocolate-making process and uncovering the distinctive flavour profiles at Casa Cacao.
Polly worked with Jordi Roca, owner of the famed chocolate boutique and hotel, Casa Cacao and the youngest of the acclaimed Roca brothers. As part of the exploration, she also spent time with master chocolatier of Casa Cacao, Damien Allsop.”
