Macallan Harmony: Intense Arabica, 44% - Whisky Wednesday
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- The Macallan Intense Arabica is a journey of joint efforts to make Macallan and coffee unite in the ultimate flavour profile... but it didn't really hit it for me.
I'm not a coffee expert in any way, but the smell of this Macallan is all forest fruits and classic chocolate orange notes from Macallan of old. The finish, albeit very long, isn't something I'm a fan of. It reminds me a lot of Macallan Edition No.5 - the finish of it anyway. It had this very bitter and dark intensity to it, which doesn't seem very complimentary to the smell or initial taste profile.
At £140 per bottle, this isn't going to blow your mind, I would class it as a rather sub-par offering from the famous distillery. But naturally, that's just my opinion, I've heard rave reviews about this from other people. So what's your view?

Interesting dram… a RA bi ca is the main coffe bran used in italian espresso ☕️ so your tasting notes are revealing. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and take care. Ciao S.
Thank you, Sandro! Didn't realise it was the main bean used in Italian espresso.
Good to now on this expression. I have the Rich Cacao, but haven't opened it yet. Great review.
Thank you, Keith!
Well you should have added a few drops of water to see how it would have changed. Something to consider
Good review! Would be interested to see a review of Glenturret 12 or 15 and get your thoughts 👍
On the list, Ben!
Another very limited product in Canada and way over priced. In many markets in Canada over $325 before taxes. Was cheap in ontario $275 but the majority disappeared quickly and limited per person... As stated the better and more difficult products very limited and expensive
Not really worth it from a drinking perspective either
Its pronounced ahh-rab-icah
Doesn't translate well in a Manchester accent.
How do you know you’re really getting the sample you’re buying and not them putting in a cheaper whiskey?
I'm pretty sure that would be grounds for fraud. Plus, they're very well regarded, and the site is run by fellow whisky enthusiasts.
