Description
After mellowing in a refill cask to develop the soft distillery character for a decade, a secondary maturation in a specifically chosen Amontillado cask wood develops the unique flavour.
Serving Suggestion:
This intriguing whisky is best served neat.
APPEARANCE
Golden brown.
BODY
Firm in body, light to medium in mouthfeel.
NOSE
Brisk, sharp and brittle. An excellent nose; astonishing balance and complexity between sweet and dry. The slightly firmer, drier notes are provided by very soft vanillins and crisp grape; the sweeter, nuttier ones by the malted barley and possibly the Spanish oak.
PALATE
Dry, after early biscuit-sweetness. Enormous malt character contrasts with the fruitiness of the grape.
FINISH
Very long, dry, oaky. Very faint peppery notes add spice, softened by very late caramel.
