Лёгкий, мягкий и ненавязчивый виски с десертно-фруктовыми и ванильными нотами, который легко пьётся, но не отличается глубиной и характером. Цена при этом воспринимается многими как завышенная.
развернуть подробно
По текстам отзывов виски описывается как лёгкий, мягкий и ненавязчивый, «не требующий» от дегустатора усилий. В аромате и вкусе чаще всего упоминаются ваниль и ванильный крем, карамель, сливочная и десертная сладость, а также фрукты — яблоки, груши, цитрусовые, апельсиновая цедра, иногда кокос и лёгкие цветочные ноты. Несколько отзывов отмечают, что шерри выражен слабо, а доминирует скорее бурбоновая бочка, и что напиток не воспринимается как «типично макаллановский». Тело нередко описывают как тонкое или средне-тонкое, а послевкусие — от короткого до среднего, с лёгкой пряностью, дубом и иногда шоколадом или перцем.
Общий тон отзывов двойственный: часть считает его приятным, лёгким и подходящим для знакомства с брендом или для начинающих, другие называют его заурядным, «осторожным» и лишённым характера и смелости, особенно на фоне репутации и цены Macallan. Стоимость неоднократно критикуется как завышенная относительно того, что предлагается во вкусе. При этом отдельные отзывы прямо хвалят качество спирта и подачу, а один называет его «супер».

Easy fine enjoyable whisky with round appearance. I could imagine this dram on a mild summer evening not worrying about anything. The whisky is not demanding in any way. In comparison with the previous Night on earth II it is different. Really enjoyable but maybe a little bit higher abv would have closed the gap. For € 110,-- only if you really want to have a stylish macallan otherwise try others.

Much like the initial release in this series, The Macallan A Night On Earth The Journey isn't very inspired.
peatjensExpert Senior7822 may 2026 2:33 am
Following the first release in the series, this bottling again gives little impression of Macallan having created anything special. Expectations for the brand are high: depth, distinctiveness, and a whisky that explains why Macallan enjoys such a reputation. Instead, this bottling once again feels rather cautious and lacking in daring.

The nose opens pleasantly with floral and sweet notes, but remains quite restrained. Rosewater, jasmine, vanilla, and candied orange seem more juxtaposed than truly interwoven. Instead of excitement, the result is a pleasing but unremarkable impression. * Shortbread / Butter biscuit * Vanilla cream * Honey * light orange or lemon zest * Apple / pear (partially cooked) * Caramel * some “cereal notes” * occasionally: light floral notes (flower, perfume – but rather subtle) .
Вкус

On the palate, it offers a pleasantly creamy mouthfeel, but lacks character. Vanilla, candy, and breakfast cereal notes evoke associations of sweetness and simplicity rather than complexity. Spices and fruit notes are present, but they come across as more of a background element than a defining feature. * Vanilla pudding / cream * Toffee / Caramel candy * Butter biscuit / Shortbread * light spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, clove) * sweet fruits (apple, pear, orange) * partially: slight coconut note * mild oak .

The finish confirms the overall impression: short to medium length, little development and no lasting aftertaste. * Short to medium length * Ginger * Pear jelly * soft oak * hardly any lasting impression

It smells nice. It's not really "macallanish". Not much sherry in it. Rather, the bourbon cask dominates. Citrus fruits, coconut, vanilla, caramel and ginger. A little sherry in the background. Nice, not the usual. A little youthfulness comes out in the taste. Then the flavors come out nicely. Apple pie, vanilla sauce, citrus fruits. Ginger and coconut. The aftertaste is medium, black pepper and dark chocolate, with a hint of woody astringency. (3-4th fill barrels?) Overall not bad. Worth a try. The asking price of 113 EUR is a bit overpriced. This should be priced around 60 EUR in my honest opinion.

I am a massive Macallan fan and a drinker / collector / seller. The Macallan Journey putting the artist collaboration aside for a moment, has led to a beautifully presented box with complex open system. It is not expensive at £105 although limited in release annually. They manage to sell out not THAT long after release as people like to have a Macallan they can crack open and not feel like they're drinking more than the GDP of a small nation. I have had 3 glasses of this in a GC glass prior to writing here and heeeer goes. Nose: Pallate: Finish This whisky is reliable. It is good however, I personally could not drink more than 2-3 glasses without needing something with a stronger taste. the lighter stuff can get sickly after a bit but that is me. It is a great whisky and what makes this 91 is the start of greatness is here and since this is sub £150 makes it all the more a Macallan for most. Not quite the £80 for everyone and their dog but it is reasonable, looks good, smart presentation. Highly recommended to get people into Macallan. Oh wait... the finish... i just got some nutty taste whilst writing this on my 3rd glass.

A simple, drinkable, light whisky. It's not bad, but the price is ridiculously high.

Mild, floral nose, decent sweetness, vanilla... not too sherried. Thin mouthfeel with no offnotes but also without character. Somehow underwhelming when you are used to cask strengths and complex older malts. Maybe a suitable malt for beginners. Certainly not for over 100€$! Around 40 would be realistic imho.

The last time I had a MacAllan it was the Gold bottling from at least 15 years ago!! This was quite the pleasant surprise to have tasted! This for me is the epitome of my enjoyment currently - easy to enjoy, non demanding whisky that provides enough flavour to engage you Could it be better? Yes Could it be cheaper? Should be! Is it enjoyable as is? Absolutely I have to give credit to MacAllan - despite the chill filtration and lower than desired ABV, the spirit is still very much there and it’s a quality one at that…. A bottle I’d be happy to have in my cabinet to drink, savour and enjoy

Unfortunately a bit thin. Apple pie with raisins and vanilla ice cream. A bit of wood too.

Nose: The fragrance opens with a light, floral and fresh aroma, with notes of vanilla, caramelized sugar, candied orange peel and a hint of honey. Taste: The taste is soft and creamy, with hints of candied orange, cinnamon, nutmeg and a subtle touch of coconut flakes. Finish: The finish is medium in length, with a light spiciness and notes of candied pear and soft tannins.
