Aged for 24 years in a single Refill Sherry Hogshead cask #2213
Only 258 bottles released at natural cask strength 58.3% ABV
Light on the eye, with a nose of soft leather.
A rich spicy floral taste associated with a refill cask. After the initial thrive there is a slight sweet vanilla flavour at the back of your throat.
I recommend adding a couple of drops of water to the 1982. This really lets it come a live, releasing more floral and vanilla notes, with some light nuttiness.
An elegant soft finish.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Light, pale gold with a soft sunlit glow, a whisper of warmth edging toward pale amber—hinting at the refill sherry cask maturation.
Nose
Soft leather dominates the aroma, with a refined spicy bloom and a whisper of floral elegance.
Palate
Spicy, floral and richly layered, the palate carries warmth from the refill sherry cask. A sweet vanilla note lingers at the back of the throat after the initial kick, with a touch of nuttiness. A few drops of water unlock more bloom and vanilla, revealing almond and spice, and finishing with elegant softness.
Finish
An elegant, soft finish that lingers with delicate floral notes and a veil of vanilla. A whisper of spice threads through the tail, leaving a refined warmth and a final hint of nuttiness as it fades.
