My favourite whisky to date! I am saving the highest scores (full 5 stars) for something a bit older than this, granted I like it! So this whisky just has everything I could ask for out of a whisky. On the nose it’s sweet, it’s fruity and juicy, but you also get a whisp of aged Sherry wood, and also a slight cinnamon spice note. On the palette, so complex yet balanced beautifully, juicy sultana and cooked orange peel burst on the tongue. Then you get a streak of that sherried wood, a sweet oak note, and all the while, there’s a faint spice running through it all. Nothing overpowering, but if you search for it, it’s there and present. On the finish, beautifully long, a brown sugar taste with cooked citrus fruits again, and the wood comes back gently. Just a perfect mix of everything you’d want out of a whisky! No smoke, which is a plus in my book as it wouldn’t suit this whisky!
