MOSTARDA DI FRUTTA DI CREMONA

This is a 20 year old First Fill Sherry Hogshead bottled at 55.4% is from an iconic Highland Distillery.

Panel's Tasting Note: "This malt used to pride itself on sherrywood maturation; now there is a parallel range of 'Fine Oak' bottlings. Fans of the traditional style will not be disappointed by this superb example! Aged PX and ripe figs; toffee sauce and maple cured gammon; pecan nuts and creamy Thai curry... Big and sweet in the mouth with creamy coffee, then dark chocolate truffles and stem ginger. It drinks very well straight, and with water the sweet, fruity flavours merge into 'mostarda di frutta', that wonderful glacé fruit condiment, with traces of Fentiman's Cola. Syrupy sweet to taste, with treacle toffee and chocolate in the aftertaste. Whisky pictured at right is a sample image."

Drinking Tip: ""Reminiscing at a reunion of old friends."
