Macallan 1990 – Accolade Collection

Indulge in the luxurious experience of the Macallan 1990, an exquisite expression launched under the esteemed Accolade brand by Duncan Taylor. This remarkable whisky encapsulates the essence of Speyside craftsmanship, embodying sophistication and character in every drop. 

Nose: From the moment you raise the glass, a soft bouquet entices your senses, presenting gentle fruit and floral notes that evoke faded summer roses. Candied citrus peel intertwines beautifully with the rich aroma of dark sultanas, while subtle hints of vintage leather and a well-stocked cigar humidor add depth to the olfactory experience.  

Palate: As you take your first sip, expect an oily, mouthcoating texture that envelops the palate with richness. Warming Christmas spices dance alongside orange peel studded with cloves, giving way to a soft honey sweetness that gradually mellows as the spice envelops your taste buds. The complexity deepens over time, revealing dark earthy chocolate tones complete with nuttier nuances of toasted hazelnuts and almonds. 

Finish:The finish is an opulent finale—long, luxurious, and velvety. The spiced warmth lingers gently, softening as the honey notes make a delightful return. The balance between the fruitiness of the nose and the palate sings in perfect harmony, providing a classic Speyside sherry cask whisky that is both inviting and rewarding.

A true pleasure to drink, the Macallan 1990 is not only a celebration of heritage but an exquisite reflection of the exceptional craftsmanship from Duncan Taylor. This limited release promises to be a cherished addition to any whisky lover's collection.

Enjoy this lovely dram and let it transport you to the lush landscapes of Scotland!
