Coffee is usually not the first thing that comes to mind when you pop open a bottle of Scotch single malt whisky. Simply put, it’s not one of the usual flavour profiles or tasting notes you would expect from a Scotch.
The first whiskies in the series were last year’s Rich Cacao and Fine Cacao, released earlier this year, both of which were inspired by chocolate. For its second edition, however, The Macallan has drawn inspiration from the world of coffee, with two unique expressions – The Macallan Harmony Collection Inspired By Intense Arabica and the travel-retail only The Macallan Harmony Collection Smooth Arabica, both of which were inspired by the Ethiopian Arabica coffee bean.
UK-based coffee artist Dhan Tamang crafted a range of coffee art, and shared his knowledge on the art of the perfect coffee serve and sensory perceptions, while leading coffee historian Professor Jonathan Morris provided an insight into the roots of coffee and how it became the global phenomenon it is today.
To create the Intense Arabica, Bremner selected a harmonious combination of whiskies from American and European oak casks to achieve a tasting profile that is reminiscent of a sweet yet strong espresso coffee and has a higher ABV of 44%. The result is a whisky with a beautiful nose of tiramisu, cappuccino, gingerbread, raisins, almonds, sweet oak and vanilla. On the palate, the coffee notes really come through, with espresso and dark chocolates at the fore, followed by more of that tiramisu, as well as blackberry, vanilla, Brazil nut and sweet oak.
