Color : Gold.
Nose : Dark chocolate, dry fruit cherries dipped in liquor and some toffee. A very nice mix. Deeper than the summery lighter Peacock.
Palate : Sherry influence is very noticeable. We get the dried fruit salad. Spice ( cinnamon and nutmeg) and that Oloroso sweet fruity spicy tang. Good integration, without ‘over-sherrying’ (is there such a verb??) the Arran malt profile.
Finish : long dry spicy and sweet, Dying on dried fruits oak and chocolate.
This is a much heavier bigger bodied and the extra sherry casks make the difference.
