Uninspired

Picked this up at the Hong Kong Airport Duty Free store about a year ago, just finished drink it. It has taken me a long time because, well, I didn't like it at all.  Sounds interesting, doesn't it, 1851 inspiration?  It isn't much of that.  The bottle is bubbly and that's interesting, but the liquid inside is mundane at best.  It is neither rich nor full nor even flavourful.  If this is what people were drinking back then, Macallan certainly has improved quite a lot in the century and a half since.
