Tasting Notes

Colour

deep amber with green hues

air Nose

lots of sherry and a huge maltiness, with quite some ‘nice’ sulphur, roasted peanuts, roasted chestnuts and chocolate. Very distinctive, almost an ‘anti-vinous’ sherry, until we get bold notes of old rancio. It gets then more classical, more raisiny and even slightly meaty and minty at the same time. Lots of toasted bread as well. Extremely noseable despite the very high strength, as if the sherry worked like an alcohol filter. A different kind of sherry monster – but let’s still try it with water: again that worked. It got even more coffee-ish (I love good coffee) but also singularly meaty (not only plain grilled beefsteak but also well-hung pheasant.) Hints of Chinese sour plum sauce. Quite superb!

restaurant Palate

dry sherry and dry sherry plus dry sherry – amazing. Strong coffee, bitter chocolate, Smyrna raisins, old dark rum (very close), overcooked caramel… It isn’t really thick but very assertive. And a bit too strong… With water: okay, not it got a little too dry and drying I think, and maybe a little sourish. But what a huge liquorice now!

timer Finish

very long, very chocolaty and liquoricy, with just a slight cardboardiness and tannins from the wood, as well as a little salt and maybe even peat. But what a beast! A rather different expression of sherry matured Scotch, well worth trying if you’re into that sort of things like I am. 90 points (and thanks, Konstantin.)
