Nose is red wine, raisins, cherries, brine, sugar, almonds, bit of chocolate. I could see green apple. Great nose.
Body is heavy on almonds, with a nitrous mouth feel. The red wine comes back. Cherries, oranges, and sweet cream are there as well. Fruit punch.
Finish is honey. Red wine is still there. Bitter coffee note hits on the end.
Substantially better than WTMK Revival, which is mustier and more bitter in comparison. More industrial. This tastes cleaner. This may be my new benchmark for how good an Oloroso sherry finish can be.

@Milliardo yeah, absolutely—-sounds good. I’ll write you an email. I have a few things to send over as well
@PBMichiganWolverine if you ever want a sample just give a holler!
@Ctrexman I was lucky back in July 2021 to get this at the distillery for about $70. It’s likely double if you see it nowadays unfortunately
Sounds awesome.......how much
Need to keep an eye out for this one
