I got couple bottles while they last in shop, I looked forward to tasting this, though worries this probably younger spirit don't deliver (despite heavy oloroso finishing).
The colour is nice, dark and by the whirl you can see the higher ABV. Luckily, it didn't disappointed me. I could imagine leaving this in european oak for like six years would do great to balancing the intense sherry in this whisky.
Nose: Bit pungent, slight hint of acetone hidden in over-riped fruits like apple, pear, apricot. Oak grove with plenty of red-berries recently trampled over with animals after a rain.
Taste: Edgy young start branching to the heavy red wine & apricots, touch of old oak planks (yeah, oloroso cask did quite a job). This has sherry written all around it.
Finish: Slowly fading oak and sherry.
