Named after Litha, the Celtic name for the summer solstice, this is a whisky that captures the powerful synergy that occurs when two forces meet for the first time: The Macallan’s fruity new make spirit from Speyside, and first fill sherry seasoned oak casks crafted to exacting specification in Jerez de la Frontera, Andalucía. Deep gold in colour, with butterscotch, vanilla, chocolate, citrus, and tropical fruits on the nose; vanilla ice cream topped with berry compote, toasted oak, warming wood spice, salted caramel, and pecans on the palate; a medium, lingering finish of fruits, vanilla, and sweet oak. A pure moment of creation. An eternal first encounter that changes everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep gold — the rich, luminous colour of a single malt matured in first fill sherry seasoned oak casks from Jerez de la Frontera, with the natural depth and warmth that The Macallan’s unwavering dedication to exceptional cask quality delivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAroma\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gentle scent of vanilla and butterscotch unites with a spark of citrus over a bright canvas of tropical fruits — reminiscent of a summer’s day and the radiance of the sun’s energy.
