Palate: Pears, citrus, orange, dry sherry, vanilla, salted caramel. Wisps of smoke. Finish: Medium finish. Light smoke, nutty, apple and pears, leather. There's a nice spicy edge on the finish with notes of cinnamon and white pepper). This is a NAS whisky, however the age of the spirit is at least 9 years old. All casks used are air dried Maturation uses ex-bourbon casks where the bourbon has sat for a 3 year period Finishing casks: 60% ex-bourbon, 25% Oloroso sherry, 15% virgin North American oak This is a very well balanced whisky. Lots of interesting layers, moving through fruit, vanilla, spices and smoke. Very moreish, a bit of a session dram.
