NOSE
Oak, cocoa, toffee, baking spice, vanilla powder, dried fruit, hazelnuts and a touch citrus and s’mores.
This Basil Hayden’s 10 Years is a significant improvement over the standard with a warmer, deeper aroma that’s just lovely.
PALATE
Oak, toffee, leather, roasted nuts, cocoa, vanilla powder, dried dark fruit, graham cracker, baking spice and bits of orange peel and yeastiness.
Again, very nice. It has a warmth and a depth to it that makes it wonderful to just sit and sip.
FINISH
Medium -> Oak, dried fruit, yeast, nuts and a bit of baking spice drift out a bit biscuity
