Glenlivet Nàdurra Oloroso Matured

This thing is HOT. Chocolate, sherry, and bourbon notes are the first things that jump out.

Sherry forward with a hint of pepper and atomic bite! Very nice expression of the toffee, coffee traditional Glenlivet Scotch with an added bonus of manicured and refined sherry polish. If you like a sherry finished whiskey this is for you. The sherry complexity is among the best I’ve tried. This is a dram good pour!

Nose vanilla, honey, oak, dried fruit. Pallet spice, vanilla, honey

A cask strength expression from Glenlivet, Nadurra means "Nature". I have had the 48%abv before and it was great. This one is totally different but just as good. Bottled at 60.7%; pale straw color. On the nose, chocolate fudge, earthy, Super appealing, freshly baked Brownies. Forest. On the palate, buttery, chocolate and cereal. A little straightforward, but it works. Aftertaste is a strong atomic pepper bomb. Since it is a cask strength, i added a couple of drops of water, it released banana flavors and aroma, just as the 48%abv one.
