Single Malt — Islay, Scotland

November 27, 2022 (edited April 2, 2023)
(Good Spirits Co. Glasgow – Virtual Whisky Tasting, 19 November 2022).
Nose: Dried fruit, dark chocolate cherries, baking spices
Palate: Dried fruit, stewed apple, cloves, cinnamon, salt/saline, caramel sauce, chocolate. Nutty & woody dryness. Christmas cake.
Finish: Long finish. Salted caramel, cocoa, chocolate, cherries, nutmeg, sherry.
Ex-bourbon and (mostly) ex-Oloroso sherry casks
Unctuous, full-bodied and sherried. Toffee and dried fruit with a well balanced sweetness. Christmassy. Complex, layered and well integrated. This is a cracker of a dram!
Came second out of the six drams, with 20% of the final vote for favourite of the night. 83% of those present said they enjoyed the whisky. This got my vote for favourite of the tasting.

Great review! I absolutely agree, this is a must buy. A stasher. Better than the 2021 batch. I bought 3 bottles today. -Slainte
