Macallan 2007 G&M Speymalt #14479 55.9% 70cl The Rhythm & Booze ProjectMacallan 2007 G&M Speymalt #14479 55. 9% 70cl Celebrated independent bottler Gordon & MacPhail returns with another beautiful Macallan release, part of its prestigious Speymalt collection. Distilled back in 2007, this elegant expression was aged for 18 years in a refill sherry hogshead, numbered 14479. Despite the extended ageing, the fruity, rich, dense Macallan character shines through. A must taste.

A superbly rounded and very tasty Caol Ila is hitting all the marks across the palate

with a distinct woodsmoke and exotic fruits - lychees and under-ripe melon

charred oak and red velvet cake

dark fruits and leather

with cloves and anise

sliced baked apple

Speyside single malt distillery Benromach is known for its power

Finish: Medium length with a surprise herbal element

aromatic oak and tobacco box spices

and is every bit as beautifully integrated as you’d imagine

Glen Garioch in sherry is even better

Nose: Soft milk chocolate with a little hint of soft fudge and golden crisp wafers
