The Macallan 10yo Full Proof Sherry Cask is a rare and exceptional single malt Scotch whisky from the Speyside region. This exquisite expression from The Macallan distillery was released exclusively for the Italian market, believed to be in the late 1980s. Bottled at a robust cask strength of 57% ABV, it boasts rich and enticing flavors that capture the essence of sherry cask maturation. On the nose, this whisky offers an alluring combination of plum, white pepper, milk chocolate, and fig. Additional aromatic layers reveal discreet, dry notes of noble wood, old furniture, varnish, mushroom, earthy tones, fine foliage, herbarium, coffee, old leather goods, leavened wort, prunes, roasted nuts, wet tin, burnt match heads, and whetstone. The palate is equally complex and luxurious, delivering an exquisite symphony of thick, saturated, spicy oak, sweet creamy and confectionery notes, boiled condensed milk, baklava, burnt caramel, burnt jam, cappuccino, dark chocolate, sticky mineral-metal tones, nuts, nougat, burnt crackers, and cola. This 10-year-old is highly regarded by whisky enthusiasts, due to its full-bodied profile and remarkable depth. The finish is long, warming, and oaky, with spicy and creamy notes, touches of oak, leather goods, prunes, burnt jam, light mineral notes, metallic acidity, and berry-confectionery shades. Each sip is a testament to The Macallan's commitment to producing exceptional single malts, and this bottle is a fine example of the renowned 'Easter Elchies house' watercolor from Sara Midda's iconic white box. While this dram has been discontinued since 2013, it remains a particularly special and sought-after bottling for collectors and connoisseurs alike. A true ideal example of sherry aging, with a wide palette and complex composition, all components are perfectly balanced, creating a very lively and dynamic whisky.
