Macallan Edition No. 2 Limited Edition (2016) 75cl
Edition Series: No 2 - Not the 70cl version but the 75cl larger US edition
The second release from the Macallan Edition series represents a collaboration between Master Whisky Maker Bob Dalgarno and the renowned three brothers behind El Celler de Can Roca. Crafted from a blend of European and American oak casks, this single malt delivers a nuanced tasting experience with aromas of mocha, brown sugar, ginger, and oak-y warmth on the nose. On the palate, expect notes of sherried raisins, dried citrus peels, and subtle vegetal oak, leading to a finish of spiced fruit cake and lemon peels.
Given the stellar reputation Macallan have cultivated over the years, they’d probably be forgiven for resting on their laurels and adopting an attitude of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. The Edition Series confirms that very much isn’t the case, with its willingness to look beyond the traditional cask types favoured by the distillery. Each of the six expressions is crafted from a unique combination of casks selected to push the boundaries of what whisky drinkers have come to expect from Macallan.
Edition No2 is a collaboration between Master Whisky Maker Bob Dalgarno and legendary Spanish chefs Joan, Josep and Jordi Roca, of El Cellar De Can Roca, twice voted Best Restaurant in the World. The seven cask types selected are said to reflect the personalities of those involved.
Nose Mocha, brown sugar, a spark of ginger and some oak-y warmth.
Palate Notes of Sherried raisins and dried citrus peels develop, a hint of vegetal oak. Still a little chocolate-y.
Finish Spiced fruit cake and lemon peels.
