Top reviews for The Macallan Rare Cask Batch No. 2 2018 Release:
— Too long to remember anything other than cherishing every sip!
— There is no discernible taste difference between 2018 Batch #1 versus Batch #2, at least from my point of view. The color, texture, nose and finish between the two are indistinguishable. I tried to find differences, happily more than once. But what does prompt me to like Batch #2 a bit more is in the presentation of the box. Whereas the Batch #1 came in the original red box which has always been a staple for Rare Cask, the Batch #2 has a new look, and the bottle has a nicer label. But the liquid content is the same. As most of you already know, the year 2018 is the first time Macallan indicates Batch numbering in their Rare Cask. In 2018, there are 3 clearly labeled batches. Each is a collector's item.
