Remarks:
wonderful sherry maturation, would have guessed it to be older. The alcohol is wonderfully integrated. Delicious.

Overall I rate this Whisky 90/100 points

  • Nose: 90/100 points
    strong, intense sherry aromas, lots of dark dried fruits, raisins, spicy, then softening, strawberries, dark chocolate

  • Taste: 90/100 points
    intense sherry notes, dark dried fruits, spicy, a little pepper, nuts, dark chocolate,

  • Finish: 90/100 points
    strong, lots of dried fruits, spicy, becoming sweet, dried plums, quite long
