Review #8 of 12 from DC Whiskyfest 2018. I was only able to do 12 because I came down with something that afternoon that really messed with my head and stomach. I should have just stayed in the hotel room but I didn’t pay $350 for VIP tickets to sample my pillow!
No scores for anything sampled as I don’t think it would be fair.
Strong sherry, wonderful dates, raisins and earthy nose.
A spicy palate full of sherry, a little peat and something I couldn’t place but loved. Excellent
This was probably the highlight of the night. If I were giving scores this would be a 4.5-5. I wish it were more affordable.

This and the Kavalan Barrique Cask were exceptional
Probably the best of our abbreviated tour around the festival.
