Macallan `M`
$14,000.00
We have just one bottle, and I expect this will be the last we will see for some time, as spirits with leaded crystal decanters will no longer be available in Alberta. Every time we have tried this whisky is has been spectacular. The bottle is pretty sexy too!
Producer's Tasting Note
Nose: Dried fruits ripen, then soften. Vanilla accompanies green apple hand in hand. Ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon create an ensemble in the background, with strong notes of polished oak and a depth of resinous, juicy oranges.
Palate: The palate opens rich in wood spices, slowly showing all their viscosity. Wood smoke flits in and out.
Finish: The heavier raisin and sultana flavours take over, meandering to a long full finish.
Producer Description
"Part of The Macallan Masters Decanter Series created to showcase the beautiful range of The Macallan’s natural colour, M is born of a collaboration between three masters of their crafts to create a completely individual spirit.
"M is the iconic result of an unprecedented collaboration between three masters of their crafts who shared the same unique objective - to create the world's most sophisticated whisky contained in an exquisite, exclusively designed crystal decanter. A masterpiece of design, M is brought to conception by creative director and legendary designer Fabien Baron, brought to life by Lalique mastery of crystal and brought to purpose by The Macallan.
About the Decanter
"Fashioned in the highest grade crystal, each hand crafted M decanter unites proven tradition with originality, drawing on over 150 years of Lalique mastery and dedication in its refinement and flawless clarity. Its six striking facets are Baron’s homage to The Macallan’s Six Pillars; reflecting our deep rooted heritage at the heart of the decanter's unique design ethos and the vibrant natural colour of the whisky itself. Drawing on some of the richest and rarest casks maturing at the distillery, this is a complex and intense whisky. With a rich rosewood colour derived from the sherry seasoned Spanish oak casks that have nurtured this special whisky through its maturation process, M delivers a complexity and sumptuous intensity rarely experienced in a single malt."

Well. Let's not ignore the elephant in the room. This is a heckuva lot of coin to lay down. No point in beating a dead horse; that's what it costs to play nowadays, unfortunately. But by this point, I think we all know that Macallan is more than a whisky. It's a statement. This new edition of the 18 Sherry Oak is currently sitting at 89.14 points on Whiskybase.
