The Bakery: Macallan Cask

One catches the smell of baking from Macallan Cask as soon as one lifts the glass. The oatmeal raisin cookies waft in the nose, and the palate redounds with chocolate and gingerbread. It finishes with an explosive spice that lingers. A drop of distilled water lightens the body and adds fruit to the palate and finish.
