Nose: very sherry driven, touch of sulfur too. Raisins are quite forward. Dark fruits, figs, touch of oak, caramel and toffee. Palate: nice sweetness and a bit pepperish. Relatively oily for the low ABV. A bit too aggressive with the alcohol. Finish: medium. The oak and spicy notes come forward but maybe overpowered by the alcohol taste?

The Lost Distilleries Blend Batch 11
Blended — Scotland
Reviewed June 18, 2021 (edited December 16, 2021)Lucky to have tried one of these. Good and rare stuff. Nose: at first, the oak comes through with some fruity elements and a slight meaty/sulfur ish character. Complex and layered, one can smell a good age here. Some sweet elements, hints of raisins that makes me think sherry. Palate: oily and coating, all pluses in my book. Good mix of sweetness with a quite spicy profile where the oak comes through. Some citrus hints as well. Long finish. The 52.3% helps and one can feel it. Not too aggressive though. Dry and spicy with a slight touch of salt with an overall well balanced sweetness.
