In October 2017, the Scotch whisky distillery Macallan (Macallan) announced the awakening of the long intermittent Exceptional Single Cask single barrel Strong series (hereafter: ESC), and launched 14 single-barrel wines at one time (hereafter: ESC 2017 version). According to the news released by the Macallan officials at the time: 7 of the cocktails will be launched in the United States and Asia in November 2017, and the remaining 7 will be on sale in Europe, the Middle East and Macallan wineries at the end of 2017 (for details, please See: "Heavy! McAllen launched 14 single barrels at once!"). However, although the first 7 wines of are on the market as scheduled, there are too many porridges, and very few people can buy and collect these 7 wines. The last 7 wines are scattered all over the world, and few people see their beauty. .
Until now, McAllen fans and "stamp collectors" are still beating their chests for the two sets of "Dragon Balls" of the ESC 2017 version. Unexpectedly, another set of "Dragon Balls" appeared-Mai Karen ESC 2018 version of is here. On July 9, 2018, four sets of Macallan ESC 2018 wine labels appeared on the Internet, and according to the coding rules of the ESC 2017 version, this set of wines will be launched at least seven, because there is a set of wine labels marked on it. The last two digits of the code are "07" . Because the first seven wines of the ESC 2017 edition are only available in the United States and Asia, and there are only 4 sets of ESC 2018 wine labels that have been exposed, and the capacity is 750ml, it can be speculated that these four wines will be available in the United States, so It is reasonable to infer that the first 7 wines of the ESC 2018 version will most likely be sold in in the United States, and perhaps the same as the ESC 2017 version, and also on sale in Asia and .
The 4 wines in the ESC 2018 edition that have been exposed are No. 03, 05, 06 and 07. The wine age is between 12 and 16 years. The labels and specific parameters are shown in the figure above. Drink Life infers that the strategy of the ESC 2018 version is estimated to be consistent with the ESC 2017 version, that is, a total of 14 models will be launched. The first 7 models are sold in the United States and Asia, and the remaining 7 models are distributed to sales in other regions of . If this is the case, the ESC series may become an annual series, with 14 ESC wines launched every year, which will become an "impossible task" for "stamp collectors". Even if someone can gather together, I believe it will cost a lot. When the 2017 version of
ESC was released, McAllen had made a detailed interpretation of the code on his wine label (as shown in the picture above). I believe most of my friends should be able to understand it. If is still unclear, please leave a message. Discuss , and the ESC 2018 version still uses this coding standard. In addition, in view of the first 7 wines of the ESC 2018 version, only 4 wine labels have been exposed. If the other 3 wine labels are exposed in the future, Drink Life will report to you as soon as possible. Finally, the launch time, sales area and official price of the ESC 2018 version are still unknown. However, given that the ESC 2017 version will be launched in October 2017, the ESC 2018 version is likely to be launched in October 2018, and the price may not be available. Philippines, the secondary market price is even more. . . . . Ugh! Don't say it, it's tears if you say too much! In short, friends who are interested in , please prepare the silver !
