Tasting Notes

On the nose, a flamenco dancer in leather boots was making the oak floor shake – we clapped along while enjoying dates, figs, walnuts and serrano ham. On the palate we were immediately transported from Spain to the Caribbean, enjoying exotic flavours of raisins flamed in rum, molasses, mace, demerara sugar in espresso, candied orange peel and luxury cigars. Adding water, we returned as pirates to the coast of Spain – our galleon carrying a cargo of wine-stewed plums with cinnamon and clove, bitter orange, olive tapenade and barrels of sack – with cheroots stubbed out on the deck and the crack of an ancient musket.

The bottling also features a QR code with whisky tales from Tasting Panel chair and ‘Whisky Bard’ Robin Laing.
