The Macallan – James Bond 60th Anniversary Release Decade I (43.7%)

This single malt marks the 60th anniversary of James Bond and is the Decade I release, which looks to the 1960s, when Sean Connery first played the spy on screen. It was created by Macallan Master Whisky Maker Kirsteen Campbell and is bottled at 43.7% ABV. The pack design draws on sketches from Goldfinger, You Only Live Twice and Thunderball. The colour is Swiss gold. The nose is fresh lemon and lime with a little sherbet, then vanilla, coconut, dried fig and raisin. The palate moves from orange zest and gentle oak to dark chocolate, figs and baked apple tart with honey. The finish is sweet and long.
