We got our hands on a popular bottle that if you're in the scotch world, you've definitely heard of it...this is the Macallan Rare Cask! We actually did a review on this when we first started over 8 years ago. In fact, it was our #16th review. Did we change our score?

Nice to see a revisit, I purchased a bottle back in 18/19 on your previous review , it is still in the box in the cellar I’ve been holding this for something special. Slainte my friends 🥃🥃🥃

I’ve had a few of these at my whisky club, and have always enjoyed them, but the cost is unreasonable. Better to buy the Classic Cut IMO - cheers guys.

Ageed franklampard6316! C.C. is my favorite sherry 💣 😉 At almost 100prf, just extraordinary dram🍷

I don't have much Macallan experience but had a sample of one of these editions a few years back. I was thinking it was higher strength so I could be remembering it incorrectly but it was enjoyable. This would have to be a gift bottle for me (receiving end) as I don't see myself buying it. Good to know it held up to 8year old expectations :)

Extremely disappointing bottle. Maybe worth it for the crowd that buys JW Blue as a celebration bottle once a year. For serious Scotch drinkers this is an absolute waste of money. At $350 there are a ton of bottles that are just so much better and more interesting. Heck at $150 there are way better bottles

The original bottle of rare cask was fantastic that I had in 2017. The newer versions are not even close of basically all of their expressions. The sherry they are using is no where as good either. Cheers

@albertmiller3082 4 месяца назад

The Macallan 18 back in 1990 was an unparalleled experience. The 20th century Macallan bottlings are impossible to equal today, much less surpass. Macallan is no longer what once it was. 🤷🏼

Macallan is always overpriced. It has been successfully marketed as a luxury brand, so the price has to be high. There is quality in their products, but they are watered down and chill filtered. The last time I had the standard 12-year, the nose was wonderful, but its flavor was like water that had once sat near some Scotch whisky. Maybe I've been spoiled by hard core, cask strength independent bottlings. If I could find Macallan in that form at a reasonable price (which will never happen), I'm sure I would love it. As for the Rare Cask, I haven't tried it and likely won't unless it turns up at a bar and doesn't cost way too much. In the $300-$400 price range, there are so many other great options that I doubt this one would rise high enough on my priority list.

@johng.7560 4 месяца назад

Over $300, yet only 43%, no age statement and chill filtered? PASS,! A fool and his money are soon parted. Just like Johnnie Walker, it is for people that just don't know any better.

@bogatyr4207 4 месяца назад

JWBlack is a great “daily drinker” though. Would never buy the Blue, but the Green is a great blend too!

@dyc6315 4 месяца назад

I love the Black and Green. Green is definitely worth drinking. Blue is a pass for me.

@MartiniPinball 2 месяца назад

Funny how you think you know better than the combined experience of macallan. Seems to me your a label snob who doesn’t try a huge variety of scotch because they don’t meet your nonsensical standards.

@HANK_SCORPI0 4 месяца назад

I have the 20, 21, 22 & 23 releases and they are really good but not great. At this the price it should be great, so no more patronage from me. Even Macallan 12 year old Sherry cask here in Canada is $200....Give me a break. There are many better bottles out there at a lower price point like Tamdhu 18-year-old, Glenallachie 15 and 18. Chill filtering and added colour is a negative step in the scotch industry. I understand that Macallan doesn't add colour but they use "seasoned casks"...may as well just add colour at that point. I stick to integrity bottles now and leave the Macallans to those that want a gigantic ice cube in it while they are at the clubs.

Love the drop in from #16, awesome! “Wayne’s World, Party Time! Excellent!!”. You all might have been early in your journey , but Daaaang, hitting the 3’s again is great! It is a special occasion bottle, my son bought the 2022 for Christmas. Looks great in the cabinet and we enjoy sharing a dram once a year! Cheers Dummies!🥃
