Blair Athol Berry Bros & Rudd - Crafted In Cask Single Pedro Ximenez Cask #307592 Whisky 15 Year Old · 2009 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber-gold with coppery sheen and a rich mahogany edge.

Nose

Opulent Pedro Ximénez sherry aromas envelop the nose, with dark raisin and fig compote layered with date, orange zest and treacle. Hints of toasted almond, cocoa, vanilla and warm toffee mingle with spicy oak, delivering a velvety, luxurious fragrance that promises depth.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied, this pours with a syrupy core of dark plum, fig and raisin from the PX finish. Notes of fig paste, toffee and burnt caramel mingle with orange zest, cocoa and espresso. Spices—cinnamon and clove—shadow the palate as refined oak lends backbone. A long, warming finish that lingers with dark fruit and luscious, resinous sweetness.

Finish

Long, sumptuous finish drenched in Pedro Ximénez depth: raisin and fig, caramel and dark chocolate, lifted by orange zest and spice, with supple oak and a warm, lingering glow.
