Tasting Notes
An errant overture of cherries, blackberries and red wine-poached pears became intricately woven into a wicked symphony of chocolate caramel, toasted walnuts and raspberry jam on scorched toast. Meanwhile, the charred raisins of a sumptuous fruitcake misbehaved with salted liquorice, plums, and cinnamon swirls. All of these antics were underpinned by fine oaky tannins that elegantly supported notes of tobacco and ginger wrapped in mint leaves. With a touch of water, an enchanting sonata of violets, rose petals and elderflower cider unfolded. Lush fruits then performed with glacé cherries, tropical confections and melon, complemented by a crescendo of sticky toffee pudding and treacle sponge cake. At 29 years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
