Smoke and lots of other weird stuff -- rubbery notes for sure, and definite sherry all over the place.  I was surprised to discover this is a Macallan -- it is definitely not a traditional flavor profile for a Mac!

Musty.  Lots of nut flavors.  Hard to describe, but I like it. 
Chris
 
Carmel and vanilla nose, sherry and molasses, slightly oily long finish. 
Andy
 
Rough shery, musty

ahh, cask strength Macallan with great sherry depth and not too much of the floral notes that can spring up at times.  A great example and it almost got an A-.
