(Good Spirits Co. Glasgow – Virtual Whisky Tasting, 09 April 2021).

Barrel number: 38551127 Ex-bourbon hogshead 1 of 342 bottles Very light visually, but concentrated on the palate. Lots of dark bourbon notes. Gristy and malty with a velvet smooth finish. Obviously ex-bourbon cask influenced but has a strangely dark sherry note on the palate.
