A light sniff on the nose generate a wonderful combination of sugary and dry fruits. Citrus, toffee and species running on the side. You can also tell that the sherry notes are slightly deeper close to Dalmore 12's sherry notes but not quite there yet. While the golden liquid flowing down into your month, you immediately notice lignins and tannins from most likely an American Oak started to explode in your month. At the same time you can also taste slight sourness from the other wine cask and it's not too much so it makes it interesting for me. A medium to long finish with some spices, lignins and tannins. Like a dry black tea that bitterness with only a tiny drop of honey. Overall, a good whisky with enough complicity. But personally I just wish the finish was better.
