Port/caramel, very smooth and rich

Surprisingly smooth for how young it is. Light nose and finish. Nutty and spicy with a bit of fruit, no peat or smoke at all.

Nose - spiced tea, plums and brown sugar, a hint of honey Taste - like spiced chai tea with a dash of honey, dark fruits, dark wine, and a hint of brown sugar Finish - lingering baking spices, mild burn

Boozy nose, but not unpleasant. Heavy sherry, some plum and tea as well. Sweet

Sherry off the bat, moderate burn on the nose and on initial taste. Dried fruit mixed in their hint of vinegar on back end
