Description
Tasting note: "Reminniscent of the 100% Sherry oak in its distinctive combination of dried fruits, orange spice cake, peel heavy marmalade and light nuttiness... it doesn't have the weight and presence of its twelve year old sibling at 43%, but it's not too far off. There's a trace of sulphur and a splash of vanilla through the finish. In short, it's a decent lighter-styled sherried malt with a reasonable price tag. 40% Alc./Vol."
"Bright deep amber color. Nutty aromas of butter sautéed almonds and pecans, conditioned leather armchair, honey pastry, and rancio with a satiny, lively, fruity medium-to-full body and a seamless, complex, long chocolate cream, vanilla latte, and spiced cherries finish. A superb sherried highland malt that is a sheer pleasure to drink." - 95 points; Gold Medal, Exceptional - www.tastings.com
