SMWS Tasting Panel's tasting note:  "For this small batch single malt, we teamed up with our friends at Dunville's Irish Whiskey to create a very special Society exclusive. This time we explore the delights of Palo Cortado sherry seasoned casks, a curious wine that benefits from both biological and oxidative aging.

Enticing wafts of varnish, exotic woods, and supple leather jigged around an old wine cellar, occasionally glancing off baked banana and oily serrano ham. At the first sip, honey and treacle cascaded like liquid gold, meandering between the venerable bottles of vintage wine. A heavenly symphony of stewed apples and ripe mango followed behind, harmonising with caramelised walnuts and a hint of nutmeg.

Reduction delivered a waterfall of chocolate and cherry liqueur that tumbled over the hazelnut-spread floor of the cellar, bringing with it delicate petals and rosehips. Nut brittle, coffee and caramel now gathered in a cosy embrace with mint leaves, plums and lavender honey, creating a lush, layered tapestry of delight."
