Macallan Fine Oak 10 years old Tasting note

By Miguel at 2011 Apr,20 in Tasting , The Macallan

Matured in Bourbon & Sherry Oak Casks. This range has been around for a few years now and seems to have weathered the storm it caused amongst the faithful when it was initially released. "The Fine Oak range is...more approachable, and has the potential to be embraced by a greater percentage of whisky drinkers....cutting back on the sherry reveals more of the Macallan spirit, which is first-class." John Hansell, Malt Advocate Magazine

This dram has a white-like color.

Nose (92): inexistent. sweet, honey, tobacco, spices, floral, citrus, smoke. First nosing data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Palate (92): . sweet, tobacco, sherry, honey, wood, spices, parma violets. Bouquet data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Finish (84): no finish. tobacco, honey, wood, spices. Finish length is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Macallan 10 year Fine Oak with 89 points over 100.
