Tomintoul Claxton's Warehouse 1 - Oloroso Finish Whisky 8 Year Old · 2014 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery-mahogany depth and a warm bronze glow.

Nose

Deep, velvety aromas of Oloroso sherry weave through toasted malt, releasing notes of dark raisin, fig and orange zest. Rich walnut and almond mingle with caramelized sugar, while hints of cinnamon and oak add a warm, sophisticated spice.

Palate

Rich, sherried character coats the palate with fig, raisin and orange zest, bound to treacle-toffee and dark chocolate. Nutty almond and hazelnut notes emerge with warm spices—cinnamon and clove—while the mouthfeel remains creamy and full-bodied. A long, velvety finish of oak and dried fruit lingers, softly evolving.

Finish

An endless, velvety finish that carries the Oloroso's dark fruit and nutty richness. Deep fig and raisin mingle with almond and a touch of orange zest, while cocoa and spice quietly perfume the palate. The warmth lingers with polished oak and a refined, creamy dryness that fades to a luxurious, lingering kiss.
