The Macallan 10 year old - Fine Oak is a whisky I have tasted blind and made some notes on. Not being a huge fan normally of Macallan's this one surprised me a little must say. So definitely need to give those samples I got around a good try soon and discover some more of this distillery. 

This expression has a sweet nose filled with floral notes of violets and roses. Different fruits of banana, kiwi and oranges. A light fresh mint note and a light sherry influence noticeable. 

Some darker sweet notes and cinnamon/light leather coming through on the palate with honey sweetness, fudge, red apple, banana, vanilla, raisin and other notes like the nose. 

The not too long finish has a deep rich creamy chocolate and vanilla feel to it. Scoring it an 7,5/10
