Macallan Rare Cask Batch No. 2 (2017 Release)

A lot at the top

N: Sherry inspired sulphur that plays like peat in my nose. Honey and dark pit fruits. Crisp nose. P: Sweet red fruit dominates the front of the palate. Sherry influence shows again. The honey like viscosity holds some herbal flavors by the mid palate. F: Finish is a wine inspired oak hug. It's a mid-length finish but the flavor really shines.

Rich amber color, light bodied. Nose: strong sherry cask influence, honey, sweet fruit basket, cherries, dark cocoa, and a touch of cinnamon. Palate: mellow and warming. Honey and fresh fruit, unsweet cocoa, faint hint of oak, mild touch of nutmeg and clove. Finish: bright, with lingering honey, mild clove spice, and ripe green apples.
