Macallan Distil Your World Mexico City 70cl 48% abv

The latest offering from The Macallan's revered Distil Your World collection, Mexico City captures a sensorial journey through one of Mexico’s most joyful celebrations, the Day of the Dead festival. The limited edition is bottled at 48% abv. llustrator Alfredo Rios has created a piece of artwork for the pack,  which brings to life some of the key cultural elements central to the Mexican festival. These include the Marigold flower, which symbolise a hope of being reunited with loved ones as their aroma is thought to attract the souls who have passed. ​

On the nose, we find aromas of sugared pan de muerto bread, creamy vanilla,  sweet pineapple, fragrant marigold flowers and a hint of fresh green coriander. The intensely sweet palate brings flavours of orange oil and chocolatey Mexican mole with charred pineapple, before a finish with hints of charred coals.
