Tasting Notes

Nose:

Big, punchy sherry notes. Antique wax polished mahogany wood furniture. A touch of salty sea air. Some fruity notes underneath, strawberries dipped in chocolate, pears studded with cloves poached in red wine

Palate

Initially soft and gentle, but then everything kicks off with a bang. Pipe smoke, rich sherry, lashings of fruit, sun-dried Muscat grapes, dark plums. Very concentrated and rich, oily on the palate.

Finish:

Great length. The rich fruity sweetness continues. The peat fades away gently. Very rich and intense. A cracker of a cask.
