Fruit, sherry and a swathe of chocolate covered dried fruit. Little to no spirit character left - it could easily be from any distillery - but it's a big, chewy, delicious dram. Came second out of the six drams, with 16% of the final vote for favourite of the night. 76% of those present said they enjoyed the whisky.
