Ardgowan Clydebuilt Sailmaker, First-fill Oloroso Sherry Cask, 2022, 48%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

87 / 100

The dried fruit and orange notes give this a clear sherry-led character, while oak and spice add some structure. It sounds rich, but the balance of fruit and warmth keeps it approachable.
