One marvelous dram. This has everything you want in a whisky. Aged in a combination of 30% bourbon casks, 30% rum casks, 25% sherry casks, and 15% port casks. An extraordinarily dark color that one can easily mistake this for a whisky fully matured in first fill sherry casks on appearance alone. The fact that just a quarter of the casks used were sherry casks and 40% of them were sherry and port casks combined shows super active sherry and port casks were used in the vatting.
