Tastes

Nose is light, floral, hints of bourbon. Smooth, even, subtle grassy notes, some lollipop sweetness like a white dum dum. Overall very subtle right now. Will be interesting to see how the bottle progresses. I think there is a different dimension to this but the other skews (doublewood, Caribbean cask, American oak) win so far.

Sherry, brown sugar, light acetone, a little spicy up front but smoother on finish. Rich, enjoyable. Not too complex though

Fig, raisins, cherry, very smooth, rich. Feels luxurious. Syrupy almost but not cloying. The sherry wood presence is there and has character but doesn’t overpower either. Truly one for special occasions. Smoother than the Allardice, which was also good but more velvety texture. May be worth the extra $$$ (and Allardice is also very good)
