Detailed Description
An incredible collectors bottling from Macallan, the third in a range of royal bottlings, with only 1953 sets produced. This set celebrates Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953, 60 years before the release, and comprises two sherry cask matured whiskies – one from American oak, one from Spanish. This gives a pair of very different looking whiskies, one golden and one deep mahogany, each labelled with a different iconic image of The Queen: The American oak with Cecil Beaton’s famed coronation portrait and the Spanish oak with a 2004 image by Julian Calder.
Macallan The Coronation Bottling Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: Aroma is very pleasant.
Palate: There is a much greater presence of peat in the taste than the nose suggests. The smokiness quickly hits the palate and then tapers off.
Finish: Long lasting smokiness.
Distillery Information
Macallan was one of the first distillers in Scotland to be legally licensed. Since then we have built a reputation as one of the world’s leading single malt whiskies. The creation of The Macallan draws on the vital contributing influences of Spain, North America and Scotland – and of their respective natural raw materials, combined with traditional methods and craftsmanship.
