When I opened this bottle, I immediately loved it. I’m more of a scotch drinker, so the sherry and cognac finishes definitely hit home and are welcomed. I encouraged all of my whisky friends to buy it. However, as I am half way down the bottle, I get the slight sulfur (dirty mop water) of the sherry barrels that is most unwelcome. So I have to subtract a point and due to the price, would not purchase again.
