Andrew' Tasting Note - From ages ago!
Nose: very nutty, with dark chocolate and spices; liquorice, rhubarb crumble, saddle leather and strong-dark-Cuban cigar tobacco; a final pass highlights notes of dark fruits, orange, honey and unpeeled grapefruits.
Palate: very soft and creamy with dark fruits, spices and liquorice notes developing very quickly; the whisky is very chocolaty and the sherry notes are sublime: nutty, fruity and with just the right amount of leather and tobacco; dark Christmas cask notes develop along with clove and cinnamon spices; there are a lot of layers to the palate, and plenty of complexity.
Finish: nutty and spicy to start, soft candied fruits and Christmas cake notes linger long into the finish fading into leather and tobacco notes.
