Cost
Aged initially in American oak, they are subsequently finished in Ruby Port, Tawny Port, and Vintage Port casks. Tricky business aging whisky in a tropical climate, let alone double maturing.

Tasting Notes
"Aromas of mixed berry jam and baking spices such as clove and allspice to begin with followed by more fruit and spice. The palate gets a brief reprieve on these notes on the mid-palate with vanilla, wet tobacco, and honey, but then reverts back to finish with more spices and berries. Must love Port! "
