Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber-gold with coppery highlights and a warm mahogany undertone, luminous and inviting with a sherry-bronze glow.
Nose
Opulent sherry-driven nose, ample and inviting: dark plum and fig with orange zest and treacle toffee, layered over toasted American oak. Vanilla, almond and a touch of cocoa from the bourbon casks mingle with warm spice—nutmeg and clove—lifting a rich Pot Still profile.
Palate
Opulent and full-bodied, the palate unfolds with dark fruit—fig, raisin, plum—interwoven with orange zest, toasted almond and rich toffee. Oloroso sherry echoes through vanilla and spice, delivering cinnamon and ginger with a velvety, creamy texture. The 57.5% cask-strength warmth coats the mouth, finishing long, warm and slightly nutty, with framed oak and lingering fruit sweetness.
Finish
Long, warming finish of dark fruit and toasted oak, with lingering sherry sweetness—fig, raisin and orange zest mingling with spice, wrapped in velvety oak and a subtle peppery tail that slowly fades.
