The nose has sherry all over it, there’s also amaro, raisin, fig, berry jelly, caramel, almonds, something herbal, vanilla, oak, leather, butterscotch, toffee, malted barley, orange, cherry. On the palate, again heavy sherry cask, very very heavy that is, with grape jelly, berries, amaro, Dr. Pepper, vanilla, raisins, Jolly Ranchers, sweet, but somehow not too much so. Finishes sweet and fruity, dry with a touch of spice. What a level of complexity, the layers take almost no imagination. They’re distinct and potent, morphing back and forth with each visitation. This isn’t my favorite single malt. My favorites would be a bit less sweet and fruity. But for complexity I know I haven’t met its equal. @twostal
