Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

rich, rounded, almost exuberant at first nosing, all on very ripe apricots, sultanas, bananas flambéed and vanilla custard and going on with the same aromas. The sherry is discrete, that is... Not very complicated but extremely appealing, even sexy. Perfect balance

restaurant Palate

maybe just a tad weakish at the very beginning of the attack (the 40%...) but the whisky is very ‘substantial’ so no big deal here. Develops all on toffee (more sherry influence on the palate than on the nose), orange marmalade, bergamot (or earl grey tea), quince jelly and vanilla fudge. Very voluptuous but certainly not lumpish or cloying

timer Finish

a bit short, alas, but very clean and candied
