If you like sherry casks, you’ll love the PX and oloroso influences here. It’s got dark fruits, raisins, and Christmas cake on the nose. It’s got a luscious creamy mouthfeel and all of those Christmas cake notes alongside dark chocolate and hazelnuts. The finish with tenacious tannins and a nuttiness that lingers for a well -rounded dram. It’s not overly complex to my very amateur palate, but it excels in all the ways one would hope an older sherry-influenced dram would. It is the whiskey that made me love whiskey years ago, and I will keep it as a top malt on my shelf to revisit past moments with friends. Not to be missed! BTW: my taste was the 2019 bottling
