Here I review The Macallan Edition No. 1 single malt Scotch whisky. It’s a no age statement whisky created from 8 different casks (7 European oak and 1 American oak) which deliver their own unique flavors. The casks include:
1st Fill European Tevasa Butts- Green timber/clean oak
1st Fill European Hudosa Butts- Soft oak notes
1st Fill European Miguel Martin Butts- Dry, ginger, spice
1st Fill European Gonzalez Byass Butts- Clean oak, green apple fruitiness
1st Fill European Tevasa Puncheons- Resinous oak
2nd Fill European Sherry Hogsheads- Less intense spice & citrus orange
2nd Fill European Sherry Butts- Softer tannins & dried fruits
1st Fill American Vasyma Puncheons- Beeswax/new furniture polish
As of 01-28-2015, my current bottle count stands at over 2,100 bottles. I am a Certified Specialist of Spirits and have also been certified by the Tequila Regulatory Council (CRT). I've been actively collecting for the last two decades and what started as a small basic home bar has transformed (with the help and understanding of my wonderful wife) into what I think is a pretty nice collection. Thank you for watching and sharing in my passion.
Cheers!
