Tobermory 11 Year Sherry Butt

Distilled: November 2007 Bottled: June 2019 Casks: Refill hogsheads. Final 22 months finished in sherry butts. Nose: Sweet & honeyed. Oranges and dried fruit (sultanas) Palate: Very syrupy sweet. Dried fruit (apricots and sultanas). Finish: Pudding wine - Sauternes / Malaga Dulce. Orange peel and raisins. Overall, this is a sweet and fruity dram. There’s a slightly artificial taste again, - which also is present in the standard release(s) - and a waxy, oily mouthfeel. The combination of the sweetness and waxiness doesn’t work for my palate. Not one I’d be likely return to.
