Tasting note
品飲筆記:打開杯蓋就是明亮的柑橘皮與橙皮果醬香,接著流出香草、蜂蜜與烤蘋果的溫暖甜感,烘烤過的橡木與細緻香料為整體添了結構感,口感圓潤柔滑,餘韻帶有溫暖的辛香與持久木質感。
酒莊說明:Vibrant Oak 屬於麥卡倫的和諧系列,主題是讓橡木的「活潑面向」來主導風味而不搶走原始風貌,強調麥芽本身與各類橡木風味之間的平衡。
釀造與熟成:以傳統單一麥芽蒸餾手法製成,投入精選的橡木窖池熟成,選用偏向明亮、較少厚重雪莉感的橡木風味,使香草、柑橘與香料得以輕盈呈現。
田野與原料:原料來自蘇格蘭本地的麥芽大麥,海洋性氣候與涼爽氣溫賦予麥芽乾淨的穀物底蘊,與橡木的香甜和諧相融。輕鬆享用時建議先在杯中靜置幾分鐘,讓香氣慢慢展開。
Tasting note: Bright and inviting — citrus zest and orange marmalade open the glass, followed by layers of vanilla, honeyed baked apple and warm baking spice. Toasted oak offers a gentle backbone, while a silky mouthfeel leads to a long, spicy, slightly sweet finish.
Producer notes: Part of The Macallan’s Harmony Collection, 'Vibrant Oak' explores how careful oak selection shapes character. The bottling showcases the distillery’s celebrated oak management, highlighting lively, uplifting oak influence without overpowering the spirit.
Distilling & maturation notes: Distilled at The Macallan using traditional small-batch methods, then matured in a curated selection of oak casks with emphasis on brighter, lively oak profiles. The result is a balanced expression where oak-derived vanilla, citrus and spice sit in harmonious interplay with the malted spirit.
Vineyard / field notes: While not a wine, its raw material comes from locally sourced malted barley grown in Scottish fields shaped by cool, maritime climate — a foundation that gives the spirit its crisp cereal core and clean grain character.
