Tasting Notes
Colour
Light mahogany with a natural, warm glow.
Nose
A lavish sherry aroma greets the nose: dark fruits—raisin, prune and fig—intertwined with orange zest, ginger and cinnamon. Toasted oak adds depth, while cocoa and a delicate spice linger, signaling the 18-year-old’s refined, lingering maturity.
Palate
Full-bodied and velvety, this opens with mature oak and toasted spice. Raisin and dried fruit sweetness weave through a sherry-kissed core, accented by ginger warmth. A caramel depth deepens the richness, while a mahogany-tinted finish lingers with refined, resinous warmth.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish of warm spice and dried fruit that lingers, with ginger and raisin echoing the mature oak. A cocoa-dark undertone and mahogany warmth gradually fade, leaving refined, enduring depth that bears the Sherry Oak pedigree.
