- Nose
- Full of sherry cask influence with dried fruits (raisins, sultanas, candied peel) and warm woody spices (cinnamon, nutmeg). Smooth and soft with cereal, pear, cooked apple, sponge cake, corn, porridge, lemon meringue, and honey.
- Palate
- Rich, creamy, and buttery with sweet caramel, woody oaky vanilla, honey, and warm spices. Bitter orange and sweet honey, building in intensity with spicy and fruity notes, fading to dry smokiness and wood. Nuances of peat, overripe banana, caramel, malt, and bread.
- Finish
- Fruity with dried fruit and a woody bitter note, shorter than expected. A fine finish with a spicy and fruity clout that fades to dry smokiness and hints of wood. Fairly short finish of burnt fudge or caramel with a hint of oak.
