Tasting Notes
"Find a soft sherry influence on the nose, with nuts and honey, and a range of fruits. More of a rich sweetness on the palate with caramel and toffee, along with some spice and oak. More nuts and spice on a long, pleasing finish, as well as black pepper, oak, and caramel. Overall a much different sherry effect than typically experienced, as the cask's heritage promises."
