Tasting Notes
Colour
red coffee
air Nose
yeah well, this is disconcertingly great. It’s great when you taste it blind (and think it’s a great 35 yo sherried Speysider, as I did twice) and it’s great when you taste it disclosed, provided you’re a bit open-minded. Long story short, had you asked me what this was, I’d have said an old oloroso-ed Glenfarclas. Very lovely chocolate, prunes, coffee, blackberry jam and all that. Very few tertiary notes, though, which is normal. Umami rather originates in Japan, doesn’t it?

makes you swear. Chocolate, tobacco, lemongrass, prunes, walnut liqueur, pipe tobacco… And there are even drops of brine, honest. Perfect mouth feel. This was one (or more?) great sherry cask
timer Finish
long, very chocolaty. A hint of coffee and orange liqueur in the aftertaste
