The Macallan Colour Collection 21 Years Old
The Macallan Colour Collection 21 Years Old is a distinguished single malt that demonstrates the elegance, depth, and refinement only time can bring. Aged exclusively in sherry-seasoned oak casks from Jerez, Spain, this expression carries the hallmark richness of The Macallan, yet with a softer, more rounded character that reflects over two decades of careful maturation. Its natural mahogany hue is a visual testament to the influence of oak and time.
On the nose, it is rich and layered, with aromas of dried fruits, raisins, and figs, interwoven with vanilla, polished oak, and a gentle waft of cinnamon and ginger spice. The palate is silky smooth and refined, offering notes of raisins, dark chocolate, and orange oil, enriched by sweet sherry depth and balanced with warming spice. Each sip unfolds with complexity, rewarding patience and contemplation. The finish is exceptionally long, elegant, and warming, with lingering fruit sweetness and delicate oak.
At 43% ABV, The Macallan Colour Collection 21 Years Old is an expression of rarity and prestige within the series. It represents the pinnacle of balance between sherry-seasoned oak and spirit, crafted for those who appreciate maturity, subtlety, and depth. A true collector’s piece, and an unforgettable whisky to savour.
