Smooth Amber in colour.
Rich and delicious with essences of pears and toffee. This is a whisky that's appetising to say the least. It's rich in sherry but not in an overpowering way.
Lightly roasted chestnuts with a chocolate dipping sauce spring immediately to mind. The texture is rich with a slight oily covering, giving you a very smooth silky coating to your entire mouth.
The finish is big and powerful, with a lot of fruit berries and some lovely burnt chocolate.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Smooth amber
Nose
Juicy pear and toffee rise from a refined sherry-forward aroma, balanced and inviting. Subtle roasted chestnut mingles with a chocolate-dipping note, adding warm, creamy richness that hints at depth and elegance.
Palate
On the palate, a rich sherried embrace: pears and toffee mingle with lightly roasted chestnut and a whisper of chocolate. The texture is luxuriously mouth-coating and subtly oily, delivering a silky, full-bodied flow that carries berry fruit and burnt chocolate into a long, warming finish.
Finish
Big and powerful, the finish floods the palate with ripe berries and rich sherry, tempered by a whisper of burnt chocolate. It coats with a silky, slightly oily veil that lingers long, leaving a warm, cocoa-fruited finale.
