The Macallan Gold Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 70cl

Macallan is my personal favourite scotch and a bargain at the price. This is a more subtle whisky than some single malt and it could be too "light weight" for some but personally I like the fact it is lighter and more refined. It doesn't have an overpowering taste of peat or smoke like some and isn't too dry. I'd previously been drinking Dalwinnie and Singleton and Macallan is in my opinion preferable. It is slightly fruity and quite complex in flavour. I came to drinking scotch via bourbon, so this is very much to my own palate. I'd recommend to anyone who likes good Bourbon but wants to try single malt. At the end of the day it is all about personal taste!

Very nice and great price.

When at the Whisky Festival in Edinburgh earlier in the year, came across this as part of the tasting sessions. I could not believe how relatively inexpensive this whisky was for the quality on offer. A wee gem from Macallan.You know you want to- just do it, you won't be disappointed.

I love most single malts including this one - the exception is too peaty or too smokey which gives a kind of chemical taste although the medium smokiness and peatiness is very nice - also avoid the cheaper malt Scotch in cut price stores- McCallums are very nice malts.

Terrible whisky - bought it initially as a present as picture when I bought it showed 2 glasses (now removed). Not only was it just the whisky (no glasses) it a mediocre whisky at best. Misleading ad, very disappointed

Some might really like its being lighter on the palate than Macallan's richer, peatier and sherry/oak infused whiskies. I just found it pleasant but a little light weight.

I always use a mixer - not with this. It is so smooth, even I drink it neat, and it isn't peaty or smoky like other single malts.

I ordered this one last week however I received double cask edition. I was expecting the one on the photo. I'm dissatisfied because I've already tasted double cask version and was wondering sherry cask edition macallan gold.
