Nose: Strong sherry and raisins dominate the nose, some molasses, and toffee as well. Sweet pipe tobacco and oak evolve as the whisky opens up. Palate: More toffee/caramel mix with aged tobacco and riped fruits like figs. More syrupy molasses, but more so in the mouthfeel and some of the sweetness. A sweet toasted nuttiness also develops as it opens up more. It has a lovely minty freshness to it all though Finish: More of that super-ripe fruit like sweet figs and raisins linger with hints of burnt sugar and honey.
