Sniff:
Malt, honey, soft oak and a whiff of vanilla. Very gentle with a hint of banana, baked apple a d some cinnamon.
Sip:
This is where the ABV announces itself. Not overly so, but it’s strong. Again, the baked apple, soft and pulpy oak, honey sweetness. Lots of maltiness too.
Swallow:
A nice afterglow, with some more vanilla and a bit drier in the oak part.
We get into the more fierce end of the range. The cask strength whiskies are truly strong, and this one clocks in at almost 60%. It’s matured in an ex-sherry cask and that’s rather noticeable. There still is some vanilla on the nose but there’s a lot of other things happening too.
Not a bad dram, in the end.
