Tasting Notes

Colour

dark amber

air Nose

fairly dry sherry, rum, very dry raisins, nuts, pecan pie, roasted peanuts… With water: raisin rolls, scones, cheesecake with muscat raisins

restaurant Palate

there’s a PX side to it, but drier, less extroverted, and therefore perhaps a little less, shall we say, stimulating. Bitter oranges and grey pepper. With water: it’s the cask’s ‘honey’ that takes the lead, and one doesn’t feel the distillate has much else to say

timer Finish

fairly long, on honey and sultanas. The aftertaste is more herbal
