ABV 62.1%, 750 ml
Single Malt Whisky aged in ex-Bourbon and Port Casks
Tasting Note :
NOSE : A Thick pudding of a nose; fruit and caramel have merged into one slightly over-oaked soup; burnt apple pie
TASTE : This is essentially a port pipe sandwich…. and it shows. The spicy, jammy fruit is interwoven through any amount of caramel while the oaky saltiness gets the taste buds both salivating and puckering until you run dry
Finish : Long, massive oak with quite evident traces of the virgin barrels now detectable. And more of a cocoa hue as it progresses. At last some muscovado sugars arrive to supplant the berry fruits
