Tasting Notes
Colour
Dark amber with mahogany depths and coppery highlights, a warm tawny chestnut glow that catches ruby flecks in the light.
Nose
Sherry-drenched aroma envelops the glass, with compote of plum, raisin, date, and fig touched by orange zest. Rich toffee and toasted almond weave with dark chocolate and oak, while baking spices—cinnamon and clove—linger, adding warmth and a promising fruit-forward depth.
Palate
Powerful and warming, this palate from Kingsbarns unfolds with sherry-soaked richness: raisin, fig and prune fuse with dark chocolate, toffee and orange peel. Spices flicker—cinnamon, clove—alongside vanilla and toasted oak. Velvety, syrupy sweetness coats the tongue, finishing long with a refined peppery glow.
Finish
Long and warming, this finish pours a velvet cascade of dried fruit and spice. Prune, raisin and fig mingle with cacao, toasted almond and cinnamon, carried by sherry-soaked oak. The high ABV sustains a bracing warmth that slowly fades to an elegant, nutty sweetness.
